On

Monday

one

came

down

the

Greenway

,

they

say

;

and

another

appeared

later

,

coming

up

the

Greenway

from

the

south

.

'

There

was

a

silence

.

At

last

Frodo

spoke

to

Pippin

and

Sam

:

'

I

ought

to

have

guessed

it

from

the

way

the

gatekeeper

greeted

us

,

'

he

said

.

'

And

the

landlord

seems

to

have

heard

something

.

Why

did

he

press

us

to

join

the

company

?

And

why

on

earth

did

we

behave

so

foolishly

:

we

ought

to

have

stayed

quiet

in

here

.

'

'

It

would

have

been

better

,

'

said

Strider

.

'

I

would

have

stopped

your

going

into

the

common-room

,

if

I

could

;

but

the

innkeeper

would

not

let

me

in

to

see

you

,

or

take

a

message

.

Do

you

think

he

--

--

'

began

Frodo

.

'

No

,

I

do

n't

think

any

harm

of

old

Butterbur

.

Only

he

does

not

altogether

like

mysterious

vagabonds

of

my

sort

.

'

Frodo

gave

him

a

puzzled

look

.

'

Well

,

I

have

rather

a

rascally

look

,

have

I

not

?

'

said

Strider

with

a

curl

of

his

lip

and

a

queer

gleam

in

his

eye

.

'

But

I

hope

we

shall

get

to

know

one

another

better

.

When

we

do

,

I

hope

you

will

explain

what

happened

at

the

end

of

your

song

.

For

that

little

prank

--

--

'

'

It

was

sheer

accident

!

'

interrupted

Frodo

.

'

I

wonder

,

'

said

Strider

.

'

Accident

,

then

.

That

accident

has

made

your

position

dangerous

.

'

'

Hardly

more

than

it

was

already

,

'

said

Frodo

.

'

I

knew

these

horsemen

were

pursuing

me

;

but

now

at

any

rate

they

seem

to

have

missed

me

and

to

have

gone

away

.

'

'

You

must

not

count

on

that

!

'

said

Strider

sharply

.

'

They

will

return

.

And

more

are

coming

.

There

are

others

.

I

know

their

number

.

I

know

these

Riders

.

'

He

paused

,

and

his

eyes

were

cold

and

hard

.

'

And

there

are

some

folk

in

Bree

who

are

not

to

be

trusted

,

'

he

went

on

.

'

Bill

Ferny

,

for

instance

.

He

has

an

evil

name

in

the

Bree-land

,

and

queer

folk

call

at

his

house

.

You

must

have

noticed

him

among

the

company

:

a

swarthy

sneering

fellow

.

He

was

very

close

with

one

of

the

Southern

strangers

,

and

they

slipped

out

together

just

after

your

"

accident

"

.

Not

all

of

those

Southerners

mean

well

;

and

as

for

Ferny

,

he

would

sell

anything

to

anybody

;

or

make

mischief

for

amusement

.
