Remember Charles Dickens' famous story, A Christmas Carol? Remember how
the ghost of Scrooge's business partner, Jacob Marley, appears to him one night? Listen
to it again, as Dickens describes it:
The chain he drew was clasped about his middle. It was long, and wound about him like a tail; and it was made (for Scrooge observed it closely) of cash-boxes, keys, padlocks, ledgers, deeds, and heavy purses wrought in steel ...
"You are fettered," said Scrooge, trembling. "Tell me why."
