Something I noticed in PS/SS today...

I was rereading the end of PS/SS today and I notice a miniscule 
detail which I will now bore you with...

After Hermione leaves Harry to drink the potion and advance to the 
next room she was to get Ron and immediately send an owl to 
Dumbledore. Ok, so then Harry fights Quirrell, yadda, yadda, yadda 
and now we are at Harry and Dumbly's talk.  

"...I arrived in time to prevent that, although you were doing very 
well on your own, I must say."
"You got there?  You got Hermione's owl?"
"We must of crossed in midair.  No sooner had I reached London than 
it became clear to me that the place I shoule be was the one I had 
just left..."

Flash forward to Harry, Ron and Hermione's talk in the Hospital wing.

"...So what happened to you two?" said Harry.
"Well, I got back all right," said Hermione. "I brought Ron round- 
that took awhile- and we were dashing up to the owlery to contact 
Dumbledore when we met him in the entrance-he already knew-he just 
said, 'Harry's gon after him hasn't he?' and hurtled off to the third 
floor..."


ARGH! This is now offically driving me crazy.  Dumbly has just told 
Harry that he will not lie to him. He doesn't specfically say that he 
got he Hermione's owl but it is certainly Implied.  However Hermione 
never sends the owl so who does, or how does he find out?????
