First of all, I'd like to thank Severus for a perfectly wonderful weekend. I always enjoy his company. I hope that your accomodations were to your liking.
I am becoming more and more concerned over the things I am hearing about Hogwarts. My plan all along had been to send Draco to Durmstrang, but Narcissa insisted that Hogwarts was so much closer and that she didn't want her dear Draco so far away. I admit I relented in this case.
I am now beginning to regret my decision.
The incident at the Three Broomsticks certainly got my attention. Only Albus Dumbledore would hire faculty members that would behave in such a fashion. Severus explained the events to me this weekend, and I am not sure I wish for Draco to be instructed by people of such low moral standing. Among Draco's instructors are a known criminal and a werewolf! I tell you, it is almost too much to bear.
I, too, am concerned about the treatment Draco is receiving at the hands of his fellow students and the house-elves. I have sent Draco his very own house-elf, to ensure that he is treated in a manner befitting a Malfoy. Again, it is indicative of Albus Dumbledore's leadership that he allows a student under his care to be treated in such a fashion.
Then I find out that Professor Sinistra found three students--not two, not four, not six, but three!--in a rather compromising situation in her Tower. Such deviant behavior cannot be tolerated. I will not stand for it. I have given much time and money to Hogwarts. Even Pansy Parkinson seems to be a bit unstable as time passes. I do not think she is worthy of my Draco.
All of this happens, and Albus Dumbledore does nothing to stop it.
Something must be done. I intend to see that it is.
