jan 1, 1789 - Bartholomew Barebone exposes the American Wizarding World

Description:

Barebone was a descendant of Scourers who believed that all witches and wizards should be killed. He befriends a gullible young witch named Dorcus Twelvetrees, plies her with seemingly innocent questions, then steals her wand and publishes the locations of both Ilvermorny and MACUSA headquarters. Dorcus serves a year in prison for her crime and MACUSA is given a severe and embarrassing reprimand by the International Confederation of Wizards.
