       Oops, my bad. He *must* have had the wand in Albania, because of 
Bertha Jorkins. Sigh. 

       Some other possibilities:

       Lucius Malfoy? Scabbers might have heard Ron & Harry talking about 
Draco and the secret room under the floor in CoS and retrieved the wand to 
better his position with Voldemort when he found him. Malfoy does make that 
comment about how Harry's parents died. It could be a general crack or he 
might have been there and grabbed the wand.

       Quirrel? If the Ministry had confiscated LV's wand, Quirrrel might 
have known where it was and stolen it prior to the attempt on Gringotts in 
PS/SS. LV then knew where it was hidden and possessed something capable of 
grabbing it on his way out of Hogwarts at the end of PS/SS.
