It is interesting that many people wonder if Bellatrix did not kill 
Sirius.  Then I am reminded of some people's analysis of the Chess 
game in PS as foreshadowing: Sirius as the knight, Voldemort as the 
king Harry will defeat, but only after the opposing Queen kills 
Harry's knight (Sirius).  If the game is not totally random in 
symbolism, then it seems indeed that Bellatrix did take Sirius out of 
commission.  More curiously, will Hermione then deal with a Malfoy?? 
(Some interpretations thought that she would do in the opposing 
Bishop Draco, but I thought it might be Lucius.)

Of course, the game may NOT be thought out as analyzed.  You can do 
some web searches (the essays were referenced earlier on this group, 
around Jan 1) to see those chess game analyses.  Note:  some theory 
supporters also support Ron-is-Dumbledore, but the chess game itself 
could stand alone...
