The Dungeons

*a bell chime*

One minute, I'll be right there. Have a look around!

Rufus,

I've received a parental complaint about one of the Hogwarts professors. Dolohov-Snape, to be precise. It seems he may share some of his father's proclivities regarding students, only present ones this time, rather than former. How very surprising.

I'm attaching the parent's complaint for your review, as well as her daughter's written statement regarding what she knows of the matter. I trust you will treat this with the proper delicacy it requires, although I'm also quite certain you will enjoy the possibility of the son's downfall and the reflection it casts upon his father. Bastard or not, the apple appears not to fall far from the tree, if you will permit me to indulge in such a terrible cliche. Perhaps we might consider readdressing the Headmaster's situation at a later time as well. Do feel free to lay the groundwork, if you wish. Two birds with one stone, etc. etc. I'm sure quite a few of our fellow governors would be amenable to the suggestion, given the sordid lifestyle he has been flaunting as of late. And in front of the children, at that. Most appalling.

Do keep me informed.

Yours, etc.,

Edwin F. Hibbit-Turrill
