Pippin quotes: 
***
Quirrell screamed and tried to throw Harry off--the pain in Harry's 
head was building--he couldn't see--he could only hear Quirrell's 
terrible shrieks and Voldemort's yells of  "KILL HIM! KILL HIM!" 
and other voices, maybe in Harry's own head, crying, "Harry! 
Harry!"

Now, when Dumbledore came running to the rescue, did he 
come alone? Not according to this passage.  I would guess 
McGonagall and Snape came too and perhaps Sprout and 
Flitwick as well.  They would be handy to have along, especially  
since the potion for getting past the fire was all gone. They would 
not need to know any of the conversation   to know that Quirrell 
had gone after the Stone and Harry had stopped him, which 
seems to be what everyone knows. 

As for using the Stone to save Quirrell, he had drunk unicorn 
blood. It would be no mercy to keep him alive.
