Each item below represents a well-known name in history or current events. Repeated letters in each name have been removed and replaced by repeated numbers. So all 1's in a particular name will stand for the same letter in that name, as in a cryptogram. Zeroes are not used. Can you decode the names? -1. 1O23LD 1E3G32 -2. 121N 12D1 -3. 12332 1AM23 -4. 12G31 M2213 -5. 1E2 321S32Y -6. 12V34 1L342 -7. 123B23T 144V23 -8. 1211234 HE11M34 -9. 12B31T 134F214 -10. 1231R4 G423H1 -11. 1A231 432E4 -12. 123 412D4U13 -13. 123R45E 123P45N ![[Linked Image]](https://i.postimg.cc/ncJWQN4p/barlight.gif)

Sometimes lost is where you need to be. Just because you don't know your direction doesn't mean you don't have one.
