It takes a deal to surprise me; but I must admit that I never had truly believed that we would find this to be true. Not because I would put it past them, but because I find it difficult to believe that the Lord Protector would be so genuinely concerned for young Harry Marvolo's well-being if -
Well, in any case, it has not been spoken of among the Death Eaters. And I can't believe it is widely known among them, that it is being kept from me; but -
Theresa Spinnet was always a steady enough girl; if it is truly her, of course, and not some fabrication. If it is her we can trust this information, I am certain; she had the stable wand-work that always seems to signify a stable mind. But then I have a great deal to think about. A very great deal.
I quite agree with the above suggestions; we mustn't spook her, and we mustn't lead them to her. First do no harm, as they say. Yet we must press a little, and see if she can be of further help. Anyone who can puzzle their way through Ministry documents' wards and seals would be of the greatest use.
