ProfessorMcGonagall pulled out a lace handkerchief and dabbed at her eyes beneath herspectacles. Dumbledore gave a great sniff as he took a golden watch from hispocket and examined it. It was a very odd watch. It had twelve hands but nonumbers; instead, little planets were moving around the edge.

Itmust have made sense to Dumbledore, though, because he put it back in hispocket and said, "Hagrid's late. I suppose it was he who told you I'd behere, by the way?"

"Yes,"said Professor McGonagall. "And I don't suppose you're going to tell mewhy you're here, of all places?"

"I'vecome to bring Harry to his aunt and uncle. They're the only family he has leftnow."

"Youdon't mean -- you can't mean the people who live here?" cried ProfessorMcGonagall, jumping to her feet and pointing at number four. "Dumbledore-- you can't. I've been watching them all day. You couldn't find two people whoare less like us. And they've got this son -- I saw him kicking his mother allthe way up the street, screaming for sweets. Harry Potter come and livehere!"

"It'sthe best place for him," said Dumbledore firmly. "His aunt and unclewill be able to explain everything to him when he's older. I've written them aletter."

"Aletter?" repeated Professor McGonagall faintly, sitting back down on thewall. "Really, Dumbledore, you think you can explain all this in a letter?These people will never understand him! He'll be famous -- a legend -- Iwouldn't be surprised if today was known as Harry Potter day in the future -- therewill be books written about Harry -- every child in our world will know hisname!"

"Exactly,"said Dumbledore, looking very seriously over the top of his half-moon glasses."It would be enough to turn any boy's head. Famous before he can walk andtalk! Famous for something he won't even remember! Cannot you see how muchbetter off he'll be, growing up away from all that until he's ready to takeit?"

ProfessorMcGonagall opened her mouth, changed her mind, swallowed, and then said,"Yes -- yes, you're right, of course. But how is the boy getting here,Dumbledore?" She eyed his cloak suddenly as though she thought he might behiding Harry underneath it.

"Hagrid'sbringing him."

"Youthink it -- wise -- to trust Hagrid with something as important as this?

"Iwould trust Hagrid with my life," said Dumbledore.

"I'mnot saying his heart isn't in the right place," said Professor McGonagallgrudgingly, "but you can't pretend he's not careless. He does tend to --what was that?"
