We received an owl from the third brother as well, Adalbert I think his name was, asserting his own ignorance of Aloysius's activities. He also vouches for the widow and said he'd sent a bundle of letters on to MLE for examination. Apparently Aloysius carried on a lengthy correspondence with his niece at Hogwarts. Adalbert said he saw no sign that his brother had made a serious attempt to corrupt his daughter but was appalled to think it was only a matter of time. At any rate you may wish to question the niece, if you can manage it given the quarantine. The present head girl interned with Bellatrix, didn't she? Perhaps she could see if the niece knows anything of interest. It's unlikely she was involved in seditious activities but he may have let something slip in a more recent letter.
