This is the code we cracked in our den meeting. We had only two clues:
* The most commonly used letter in the English language is "e."
* The most common three letter word is "the."

12-23-22'-2 14-23-26-15-13-2, 2-23-22-17-15-16-2 17-1
23-3-26 5-13-10-13-20-23-1 1-11-23-3-2
21-13-13-2-17-22-15. 5-13-10-13-20-23-1 17-1 14-3-22!
See if you can solve it too!
P.S. Working as a team, we cracked this code in about 30 minutes. Good luck!
