The father used his pot to brew potions and antidotes for other muggles when they needed his help. These people included an old woman whom grandauther was afflicted by a crop of warts and a young woman whom baby was grievously ill. However he did not reveal the source of his magic and pretended that his potions, charms, and antidotes sprang ready-made from the little cauldron he called his lucky cooking pot.
