On the night of 1 November 1981, celebrated wizard Albus Dumbledore and his deputy Minerva McGonagall meet up on Privet Drive in the Surrey town Little Whinging and discuss of the deaths of James and Lily Potter , whose one-year-old son Harry Potter is to be brought to them by their half-giant associate Rubeus Hagrid. Sometime later, Hagrid arrives with the sleeping infant Harry on a flying motorcycle. As the three walk to the front lawn of Privet Drive house #4, McGonagall initially objects to Dumbledore leaving Harry with the Muggle family that lives there known as the Dursleys, as she sees them as the "worst sort of Muggles" after spying on them day by day in her Animagus form (a silver tabby cat). Dumbledore tells her that the Dursleys are the only living relatives Harry has left since his mother's sister Petunia is the only Dursley that had Lily's blood in her which ensured the protection of Harry and his family. After Dumbledore places Harry on the doorstep with a letter, he wishes him luck before he, McGonagall, and Hagrid depart.
