>> "So...You will remember ...that he refused my company on a trip to Diagon Alley and that I,in turn,warned him against continued thievery when he arrived at school." English is a foreign tongue for me and may be I am mistaken ,but use of words "in turn" made me understand this sentence as if Dumbledore's warning against thievery was a direct result of Tom's refusal his company on a trip to Diagon Alley .Surely, it doesn't mean that? Sorry if the comment was too long.
