Aurelia's the Slytherin who's his cousin. She's a year ahead of me and if she ever talks about it, it's not to me.
But I do know she was close to him, because they shared a House -- neither of her parents are Slytherins, you see (and obviously his children didn't grow up to be Slytherins, so.) They'd exchanged a lot of owls. When he died she gave all of his letters to MLE and I don't know if she ever got them back.
He wasn't exactly a traitor, you know. He died under suspicious circumstances while MLE was interviewing him but they didn't know anything for sure because he died so suddenly. People talked -- when Aurelia wasn't around -- and what everyone thought was that he WAS a traitor and killed himself somehow, you know? So that he wouldn't tell them anything no matter what. Because the other possibility was MLE killing him by accident and that didn't seem likely.
