Wand of James Dimar in a Paris Theft Case
Fragment from a 17th century tale describes James Dimar and his wand failing to reveal hidden wealth during a palace theft. The wand only reacted in planned robberies and guarded scenes, while candlesticks and gilded furniture misled authorities. The text promises a follow up letter detailing public misbelief and requests for truth.
