Owl to Mr. Sebastien Derrick
Backdated to March 1, 2004

~~ Dear Sir,

My father, David Abbott, is a supervising cursebreaker at the Ministry and informs me that you are the one to consult when one needs to find a special book.

I'm willing to pay a finder's fee and whatever the seller is asking for if you would be so kind as to help me. I'm looking for a gift for my boyfriend, and this is one I had in mind...

**** redacted for anyone who reads this other than Mr. Derrick ****

His birthday is in two days and I understand if it's too short a notice but, I'm told you're the best at finding these sorts of things.

Please get back to me either way.

Many thanks in advance,
Hannah Abbott

Ms. Abbott,

Seeing as how I know your father to be one of the more capable people to work at the Ministry, I believe I can be of service to you.

In exchange, I only ask for two bottles of your best champagne as a finder's fee. The cost of the item will be up to the Seller.

If those terms seem amenable to you, I can have the item to you in the morning.

Regards,
S. Derrick

	Mr. Derrick, My goodness... my father was right! That was very prompt. I'll send along the champagne to your attention then and I'll have a bank draft drawn up at Gringotts for your seller. Thank you very much for your help, it's most appreciated. Hannah Abbott (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Ms. Abbott, You are very welcome. Here is the name of the Seller and the cost of the item you require. ** redacted for anyone who reads it other than Ms. Abbott ** Please have the champagne sent to Nightshade Cottage, as well as the draft and I will have the item delivered to the Leaky Cauldron to your attention.
