From the Ashes

December 24th, 2009

Professor Saporta,

I would like to thank you personally for taking the time to aid my research into non-toxic Dark magic warding potions. Your expertise has been invaluable, and I appreciate all of the suggestions you've made to guide my area of study. You have been very generous with your time, but I realize you have a busy schedule and little spare time to devote to the extracurricular projects of others. At this time, I plan to continue my research in partnership with another staff member so as to not presume further upon your goodwill. Thank you again for your munificent assistance in this matter.

Sincerely,
William Beckett, Hogwarts Librarian
