Peggy W:
Probably this has been guessed before, but I think it is interesting
that as Cissa and Bella approach Spinners End they see a fox.  Bella
kills it thinking it might be an Auror, but she was mistaken... an
interesting thought that Snape's Patronus could be a fox.  It seems to
fit.  It certainly fits the Slytherin characteristics.
