4 August, 1888
Uncle H,
Glad indeed to hear that you have survived your excursion! We've just been contracted by the Ministry to sail to Egypt — to deliver the gemstone that, from what I hear, you were responsible for finding — and so I shan't be at leisure for another two weeks at least, but as long as you aren't planning on going back to Hogwarts early I think we could still fit our drinks in. We ought to be back in London on August 22nd, but perhaps to be on the safe side we could plan to meet at the Broomsticks on the 27th?
