Independently Enciphered Duplicates

Important dispatches were often sent in duplicates to ensure the delivery of a message. When the message is in cipher, it would be easy to make a copy of an enciphered dispatch. But there are cases in which duplicates are independently enciphered. I added such examples in "Finding the Keys to Philip II's Cipher Letters to Juan de Vargas Mexia".
