  Professor McGonagall shot a sharp look at Dumbledore and said, "The owls are nothing next to the rumors that are flying around. You know what everyone's saying? About why he's disappeared? About what finally stopped him?"
  It seemed that Professor McGonagall had reached the point she
was most anxious to discuss, the real reason she had been waiting on a cold, hard wall all day, for neither as a cat nor as a woman had she fixed Dumbledore with such a piercing stare as she did now. It was plain that whatever "everyone" was saying, she was not going to believe it until Dumbledore told her it was true. Dumbledore,however, was choosing another lemon drop and did not answer.
  "What they're saying," she
pressed on, "is that last night Voldemort turned up in Godric's Hollow. He went to find the Potters. The rumor is that Lily and James Potter are -- are --that they're -- dead. "
  Dumbledore
bowed his head. Professor McGonagall gasped.
  "Lily and James... I can't believe it... I didn't want tobelieve it... Oh, Albus..."
  Dumbledore reached out and
patted her on the shoulder. "I know... I know..." he said heavily.
  Professor McGonagall's voice trembled as she went on. "That's not all. They're saying he tried to kill the Potter's son, Harry. But -- he couldn't. He couldn't kill that little boy. No one knows why,or how, but they're saying that when he couldn't kill Harry Potter,Voldemort's power somehow broke -- and that's why he's gone.
  Dumbledore nodded
glumly.
  "It's -- it's true?" faltered Professor McGonagall. "After all he's done... all the people he's killed... he couldn't ill a little boy? It's just astounding... of all the things to stop him... but how in the name of heaven did Harry survive?"
  "We can only guess," said Dumbledore. "We may never know."
