In December 1995, Minerva McGonagall non-verbally conjured three chairs for Harry Potter and Ronald Weasley in the Headmaster's Office following the Attack on Arthur Weasley in the Department of Mysteries.[3] In January 1996, Arthur Weasley used this spell to conjure several chairs for his family and friends are they were visiting him in St Mungo's Hospital for Magical Maladies and Injuries.[3]
