The Tim Riggs Christmas Ghost Tale Reborn
In a princely mansion on Christmas Eve a dying man’s spirit returns, seeing wealth, prisons, and children’s longing through other eyes. The ghost laments greed, learning money corrupts yet charity through restraint saves. A later tangent shows a French officer's arranged marriage tied to a noble family, ending with a deputy’s rise.

History of the Saw in Ancient Egypt and Near East
The earliest traced tool is the notched bronze knife from Egypt’s third dynasty around 5,000 years before Christ. Later dynasties yield larger toothed saws for carpentry, with dated iron saws appearing with the seventh century BCE Assyrians. Flint knives functioned as primitive saws for animals, while bronze sheets formed early rasps later echoed by iron versions in Assyria.
Figurative usage explained by Yale authority
Professor Thomas St Lounsbury of Yale cites a schoolboy example to illustrate figurative language. A figure of speech like keeping the wolf from the door is not about a real wolf but about avoiding detection when rent is due and the landlord knocks at the door.
