Draco C. Malfoy

Mother, are you feeling better? I really was just spots, wasn't it? That's what Regulus said but then I keep thinking about how you were writing and it sort of looked the way a paralysed person might write. But you must be all right, or else Father would have let me know right away.

One thing I have been talking about with my Father is whether I should get a new mudblood or not. I'm allowed to have one to replace Dennis but after thinking about it I don't think I want one. I never really used Dennis for anything useful, and that's really all he wanted, to be useful. Most of the things he did for me the house elves can do, anyway. And if I had another mudblood it would probably just get killed, too, or some other bad thing would happen to it because that seems to be what happens to them. I'd just rather not deal with all that.

Harry, don't forget what I said about keeping a close eye on Granger, because you don't want her to be next. Also we need her
