It comes with great sadness and remorse that I write this article this evening. Tragedy has struck the Daily Prophet’s offices with news of horror. One of our own, Herbie Cloffe along with his wife have been pronounced dead. A long time writer for our Sunday Prophet, Messer Cloffe provided a wit and charm within his words. There has yet to be a formally announced cause of death, however, suspicions have arisen. After all, it was no secret what Herbie Cloffe’s beliefs were on the tensions that had grown within our world. He was a compassionate man and it bled into all parts of his life. Messer and Madam Cloffe leave behind a son and a daughter; both students at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Stefon, 15, and Marianne, 16, were both unavailable for comments.
The Aurors Department has notified us that they will be doing a full investigation onto how such an attack was unforeseen. The couple were attacked within their own home in Abberton, Essex. According to recent news, there have also been a string of mysterious activities within the area. Could they be related? We cannot yet say. However, I can guarantee that the Daily Prophet will be investigating more into this tragedy that hits close to our hearts. We wish the Cloffe family and relatives our support and sympathies.
