Chapter 19 Summary

Harry, the Weasley twins, Hagrid, Hermione, Hagrid and Mr. and Mrs. Weasley visited Ron in the hospital. Harry told Mr. Weasley what he knew about how Ron was poisoned. Hagrid mentioned having overheard Dumbledore and Snape arguing. Cormac Mclaggan volunteered to be temporary Keeper until Ron got better: During the match against Hufflepuff, however, the two began arguing and Harry fell, cracking his skull and ending up in a hospital bed beside Ron, who was pleased that Mclaggan had messed up so badly that Gryffindor lost the Quidditch match to Hufflepuff. From his hospital bedside, Harry summoned Kreacher, who showed up with Dobby, a free house-elf. Harry instructed them to follow Malfoy without letting him know he was being followed and not to make any contact with him. They do it.
