Owl from Jezebel Umbridge-Walsingham to Dolores Umbridge, dated 14 September 1942...
Very securely warded and ciphered:
Dear Dolores,
It is trite, I know, but I'm afraid things are going to get worse before they get better. There has been a meeting of the Hogwarts Board of Governors; rumour has it that Lady Malfoy argued for the closing of the school. One has to wonder what she knows, for even with the recent unpleasantness I have heard nothing to indicate that the castle's safeguards have been compromised, merely circumvented by trickery used against the weak-minded.
Combined with your news that she has not sent any of the members of her family back to school, the situation does not look good. I shall be arriving sometime within the next few days to provide a first-hand report for Dr Taverner. In the meantime I advise you to keep an eye on those students who have returned from the Malfoy household.
Sincerely yours,
Jezebel
