WRITTEN ON THE OUTSIDE OF THE ENVELOPE IN JO'S HAND: I don't know what this is or why he's writing you, but I have to be good and send it on.
I am lucky that I know a little something about animals as well as a Wizard's interesting post-system. Nevertheless, this is not about me, so I will get right to my point ...
Being a little brother to a witch (and a woman like Jo), you must realise that we, as her family, are not left with much choice beyond doing what she says and wishing her well on the way. I don't need to tell you that she is headstrong, more than a little over-confident and all too delicate for your English war. We are afraid of losing her, Mr Pepper. She is precious to us.
Because she sent us away - long, long away - I must ask you for something. She writes of you often (and would, I'm sure, hate me for telling you) and trusts you. She trusts little in the world. I read your Wizarding papers. I know her exploits are dangerous - are frightening beyond reason - and could one day cost her life. This is her choice.
However, I will do for her what little I can. Please, Mr. Pepper, for the love I bear (and surely you must also) her, watch out for her. I think her choices are rash, impetuous and I am full of misgivings when her letters are so happy and glossy as they are now.
Please, please, please don't let her die. Please. We love her & one day, want her to come home.
Yours in truth,
M. Julian Savage
