A few critical bits of cleanup

[[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Harry Potter|Harry]] awakens to an owl furiously pecking at [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Rubeus Hagrid|Hagrid]]'s coat, demanding payment for the newspaper it just delivered. Hagrid sleepily tells Harry to give the owl five Knuts, the odd-looking bronze coins stuffed inside the coat's pocket. Harry places the coins inside a small sack tied to the owl's leg and it flysflies off. Soon after, Harry and Hagrid set off for London, using the same boat Vernon hired to get to the island. Walking down the street, [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Muggle|Muggles]] (non-magical folk) are staring at them and scrambling to let Hagrid pass.
 
After descending broken-down escalators to the London Underground and Hagrid getting stuck at the ticket barrier (and after Hagrid complains that the seats were too small and trains too slow), they finally arrive at an establishment in Central London called the Leaky Cauldron. Harry notices the Muggles' gaze traveling from the record shop on one side to the bookstore on the other, oblivious to the pub in-between. Harry suspects that only Hagrid and himself can see it.
 
Upon entering the dark and rather shabby pub, Harry is greeted enthusiastically by its excited patrons. Hagrid introduces Harry to [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Professor Quirrell|Quirrell]], the new [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Defence Against the Dark Arts|Defence Against the Dark Arts]] instructor, who appears timid and nervous. Harry and Hagrid exit into a small courtyard behind the Leaky Cauldron. While Harry reflects on peoples' reaction to him, Hagrid countstaps the wall bricks with his umbrella, until; a hole appears, growing bigger and bigger, forming an archway. They enter into [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Places/Diagon Alley|Diagon Alley]], the wizard commerce district.
 
Harry and Hagrid walk past the many magic shops and down the street to [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Places/Gringotts|Gringotts]], the wizard bank. At Gringotts, Hagrid produces a vault key, and a note authorizing him to enter another vault on [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Albus Dumbledore|Dumbledore's]] behalf. After a high-speed cart ride with [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Griphook|Griphook]] the Goblin (making Hagrid queasy), they reach Harry's vault, which is filled with [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Money|wizard money]] (galleons, sickles, and knuts). Hagrid helps Harry draw enough for school supplies and expenses, and educates him on the wizard monetary system. After another cart ride, Hagrid removes the lonesole contentitem inside vault #713, a small grubby parcel. Hagrid asks Harry to say nothing to anyone about this package.
 
Back on the surface, Hagrid helps Harry buy school supplies. In Madam Malkin's Robes for All Occasions shop, Harry meets another first-year Hogwarts student, a snobbish boy who espouses allowing only the finer Wizarding families to attend Hogwarts. Before introductions are exchanged, Harry leaves to buy books, a telescope, and a cauldron. For his birthday, Hagrid buys him a snowy owl that Harry names [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Hedwig|Hedwig]]. Finally, they stop at [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Ollivander|Ollivander's]] to purchase a wand. Mr Ollivander, who remembers every wand he has ever sold, says Harry will know when he finds the right one. After trying out many wands, Harry picks up one made from holly; sparks flare from its tip—this is Harry's wand. Mr Ollivander says it is brother to another wand, the one that gave Harry his scar. Each wand's core contains one of only two tail-feathers ever donated by a particular [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Phoenix|Phoenix]].

And as secret as the wizard world is kept, some Muggles, such as the Dursleys, need to know that it exists, while a few even marry into it, sometimes unknowingly; it is revealed later in the series that the incumbent British prime ministers communicate as needed with the [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Places/Ministry of Magic|Ministry of Magic]], the wizard government. It should also be assumed that wizard banking must somehow be connected to human commerce so that Muggle parents can exchange their British currency for wizard galleons and sickles to buy their magical offspring necessities. Fortunately, Harry has no need to exchange currency, his parents have left him a small fortune stored in Gringott's Bank. This, combined with his magical talent and celebrity, will make for a potent combination that aids Harry throughout the series. Harry, however, remains generally unaffected by wealth and fame, caring little for material possessions and shunning the spotlight; he will, however, be able to use his new-found inheritance to bolster his independence, provide all his own needs, and further distance himself from the Dursleys' control, though, unfortunately, he must remain bound to them until he is a legal adult.
 
Harry is amazed by Diagon Alley, but also that everyone knows who he is and that he is so readily accepted and respected by other wizards. Without ever knowing it or the reason, heHe has been famous almost since birth, an apparent hero to an entire population, though unaware of why, or even of his own fame. Having been treated his entire life as if he barely existed, Harry's reaction to this fame is mostly astonishment at being acknowledged, and also embarrassment, feeling he has done nothing special to deserve the adulation. To readers, who still lack any knowledge regardingof why Harry is so famous, his being treated as a "hero" may be premature, andbut this label might actually presage future events, rather as well as designating what he may or may not have already accomplished. We will also contrast Harry's behavior with another character who constantly thrives on and seeks out fame in the next book, [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Books/Chamber of Secrets|''Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets'']].
 
Harry remains curious regarding what Hagrid removed from vault #713. While it is unknown yet what the packet contains, there are clues that it must be valuable. Hagrid's behavior suggests this, with the deliberate care and secrecy he shows when retrieving the package, and by his asking Harry to mention nothing about what he has seen. Also, there being nothing else inside except the packet indicates that it is probably a high-security vault protecting only that one item. Storing nothing else in it prevents anyone from having a reason, other than this particular object, to access the vault. Any break-in attempt would reveal what a thief was after.
