Regarding the Prat

[alt_gredforge]

As for the unfortunate incident which has befallen our most beloved older brother, we would like to say

We had nothing to do with it.

We were in a detention with professor Acton, which lasted the whole evening.

That is not to say, however, that it isn't a corking good prank! Congratulations to whoever pulled it successfully.

What your mother means, I'm sure, is that we'd like to take you at your word, boys, that you weren't involved in this little incident tonight. I'm sure the Headmistress will get to the bottom of things--she's quite good at sorting them out.

And don't think that protesting that you couldn't have been the ones responsible because you were in detention will do much to restore yourselves to your mother's good graces.
