It is extremely heartening to learn of this project. I truly admire your willingness to provide the remedial assistance that some of our students need, to overcome the disadvantages of their inferior birth. Yet I shouldn't be surprised, considering what I've learned of your other charitable work over the summer.

It's all the more admirable, really, given the difficulty of the assignment you've set yourself. What, after all, can really be done to overcome the disadvantages of a difference that is knit into the very fabric of one's being, into one's magical signature? Purity is purity, after all. The half-bloods may ape it, but although they may be drilled in posture or proper speech or better manners, or what have you, there will always be that telling something that sets us pure apart. I'm not expressing myself very clearly, perhaps, but that may be simply a sign of the difficulty of pinning the nature of that ineffable quality down into words.

Yes, it's quite a challenge that you've set for yourself, if I may be so bold to say so. But then, from everything I've heard about you from your many admirers, Mrs Malfoy, I believe you have never been one to back away from a challenge.
