i must confess to a bit of confusion upon receiving your letter, mr. dumbledore. in all the years tom's been here, he's never once had a family visitor. frankly, i was stunned to find that someone knew of his existence. i see. i think i should tell you. he's a funny boy -- tom. odd. there have been incidents with the other children. nasty things. you've got a visitor, tom. well, i'll leave you two to yourselves.
