new one by now.

It is not at all clear that it is *possible* to get a new house elf. I
don't have CoS right here to look quotes, but there's someplace in it
where Ron tells Harry that his mother would like to have a house elf
(so why didn't anyone fix Dobby or Winky up with Mrs Weasley) but they
only live in real old houses: I got the impression that house elves have
to be INHERITED.
