I read somewhere that JKR said a lot of clues about how the series 
ends is in SS.  (Well, probably a lot of clues to how the series 
ends is in all the books.)  But I was just wondering . . . I lent my 
SS book to a friend, so I don't have it with me.  Does anyone 
remember the specifics of the chess game in SS?  Where was Harry, 
Hermione, and Ron? And what exactly happened in that game?  (Been a 
long time since I have read that book.)
