34. Is it Dumbledore's paper on trans-species transformation in the Transfiguration Today?

A THING.  I don't believe it is magical in itself, but it pertains to magic, and only wizards and witches have it.

1.  It is only mentioned in one book.
2.  We never see it;  we only hear about it.
3.  It is not the anti-cheating quill.
4.  It was only in book 7.
5.  We don't know what size it is, but I don't think we could go wrong to believe it was something small enough to

carry easily.
6.  It is not alive.
7. HRH never touch it. (See #2)
8.  It was most likely at Hogwarts at some time in the past.
9.  Its current whereabouts is unknown.
10.  We don't hear about it from students.
11.  We do hear about it from adults.
12.  We don't hear about it from Death Eaters.
13.  I think we could say that we heard about it from a good guy.(see #27)
14.  We don't hear about it from creatures.
15.  We don't hear about it from ghosts.
16.  It is not Merlin's pants. 
17.  It isn't anything else of Merlin's, either.
18.  Yes, I imagine there are more than one of them, but I can't be sure.
19.  I would think that there might be something in the library mentioning it.
20. No, there was no mention in the book of anyone finding mention of the object in the library.
21. Yes, this thing does exist in the Potterverse.

23. It is not a wrackspurt.
24.  It is not freshwater plimpy soup.
25.  It is not a gurdy root.
26.  It is not a Crumple-Horned Snorkack.
27.  We heard about from a woman.  And as far as her being a "good guy", let me just say I'm using that loosely- she wasn't a Voldemort supporter, anyway.
28.  She was not a professsor.
29.  We don't hear about it from the Weasleys.

HINT 2.  It is found in chapter 18 of Deathly Hallows.
