Decoding Papers Found in Pockets

Merry Christmas, readers!

I did not come up with a Christmas-themed post this week, so instead I want to share a short video that Andrew sent me a few days ago, called “Messages found in Victorian-era dress decoded in Manitoba.”

It reminds me of two fairly recent blog posts, the one about code books or dictionaries of telegraphese and the one about historical ciphers being solved.

I hope you enjoy the rest of 2023! I have more family festivities coming up and I’ll also be working on my recap of December favourites and things I learned… and possibly lists of goals for the coming year. Happy holidays!
