I feel like I'm intruding!! And despite a thorough search, I cannot

However, if your theory is correct, DD was desperately trying to find
Sirius, so he could apply this ointment. Therefore, at the time of
Voldemort's defeat he didn't know Harry was at Godric's Hollow. So
who told DD that Harry had defeated Voldemort? You seem to suggest
that Snape was at Hogwarts ready to apply the ointment. Someone must
have told DD?
Brothergib thanks Kaylee, waves to the others on the boat and
continues on up the beach, scratching his head.
