Whatever's going on down Glamorgan way, Arthur, it's rippling through the camps. Wish I could figure out how the muggles seem to be able to pass messages.
Then again, so does the enemy. Heard today that they had half the muggles in the Stevenage camp outside in the heat for hours while they shuffled them all about, took them through their paces, put the stronger ones on harder work details out in the fields and generally threatened wholesale slaughter if anyone so much as breathed a word about labour stoppage or protest. Took some of the teenagers, too, Merlin knows where. Birchmore's a heartless son of a bitch, that's for sure.
I do hope you managed to save most of them from the worst indignities, anyway.
