ORDER ONLY: Young Master Malfoy
Dec. 6th, 2008 11:03 amI received the following from Lucius Malfoy on 4 December:
Draco's entry of to-day may well be down to pre-exam nerves. However it should come as no surprise that I have been paying attention to Amycus Carrow's reports as well, irregular as they are. Given Draco's post, in combination with Carrow's recent forays into the artistic world, coupled with Carrow's entries of 2nd December and 19th November (c.f., comments exchanged between myself and Amycus), I suspect that your Transfiguration professor is playing somewhat free with the by-laws regarding magical attacks against students.
You might wish to question him more closely - I'm sure you do not mind the opportunity to call him to task and remind him that the school is not a hunting ground. Regardless of whether he is tampering with Draco, specifically, his demeanour in the journals could be misconstrued.
I've heard from two other Governors that they've received concerned owls from parents since he began writing in his journal, and I imagine you have had correspondence as well. Nonetheless, I am sure I can produce additional complaints if it will aid you in impressing upon Carrow his duties and the limits of his jurisdiction over his charges.
If I may be of any assistance, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Ha! There is nothing I should like better than to go after Carrow. But - damnably - he seems to be as clean as a whistle. I cannot find any evidence of wrongdoing whatsoever, at least, not towards students.
Young Boot is another matter entirely.
In any case, Molly, you might want to observe your sons closely. Should they report any trouble with Amycus Carrow whatsoever, I want to hear about it. Perhaps we have some hope of ousting him from the castle, if Lucius will take my side against him. Only we must have proof, which I daresay he is too clever to give us - the Lord Protector will persist in his strange affection for the creature.
