Merry

started

,

noticing

the

stranger

for

the

first

time

.

'

Go

on

!

'

said

Frodo

.

'

This

is

a

friend

of

Gandalf

's

.

I

will

explain

later

.

'

'

It

seemed

to

make

off

up

the

Road

,

eastward

,

'

continued

Merry

.

'

I

tried

to

follow

.

Of

course

,

it

vanished

almost

at

once

;

but

I

went

round

the

corner

and

on

as

far

as

the

last

house

on

the

Road

.

'

Strider

looked

at

Merry

with

wonder

.

'

You

have

a

stout

heart

,

'

he

said

;

'

but

it

was

foolish

.

I

do

n't

know

,

'

said

Merry

.

'

Neither

brave

nor

silly

,

I

think

.

I

could

hardly

help

myself

.

I

seemed

to

be

drawn

somehow

.

Anyway

,

I

went

,

and

suddenly

I

heard

voices

by

the

hedge

.

One

was

muttering

;

and

the

other

was

whispering

,

or

hissing

.

I

could

n't

hear

a

word

that

was

said

.

I

did

not

creep

any

closer

,

because

I

began

to

tremble

all

over

.

Then

I

felt

terrified

,

and

I

turned

back

,

and

was

just

going

to

bolt

home

,

when

something

came

behind

me

and

I.

.

.

I

fell

over

.

'

'

I

found

him

,

sir

,

'

put

in

Nob

.

'

Mr.

Butterbur

sent

me

out

with

a

lantern

.

I

went

down

to

West-gate

,

and

then

back

up

towards

South-gate

.

Just

nigh

Bill

Ferny

's

house

I

thought

I

could

see

something

in

the

Road

.

I

could

n't

swear

to

it

,

but

it

looked

to

me

as

if

two

men

was

stooping

over

something

,

lifting

it

.

I

gave

a

shout

,

but

when

I

got

up

to

the

spot

there

was

no

signs

of

them

,

and

only

Mr.

Brandybuck

lying

by

the

roadside

.

He

seemed

to

be

asleep

.

"

I

thought

I

had

fallen

into

deep

water

,

"

he

says

to

me

,

when

I

shook

him

.

Very

queer

he

was

,

and

as

soon

as

I

had

roused

him

,

he

got

up

and

ran

back

here

like

a

hare

.

'

'

I

am

afraid

that

's

true

,

'

said

Merry

,

'

though

I

do

n't

know

what

I

said

.

I

had

an

ugly

dream

,

which

I

ca

n't

remember

.

I

went

to

pieces

.

I

do

n't

know

what

came

over

me

.

I

do

,

'

said

Strider

.

'

The

Black

Breath

.

The

Riders

must

have

left

their

horses

outside

,

and

passed

back

through

the

South-gate

in

secret

.

They

will

know

all

the

news

now

,

for

they

have

visited

Bill

Ferny

;

and

probably

that

Southerner

was

a

spy

as

well

.

Something

may

happen

in

the

night

,

before

we

leave

Bree

.

'

'

What

will

happen

?

'

said

Merry

.

'

Will

they

attack

the

inn

?

'

'

No

,

I

think

not

,

'

said

Strider

.

'

They

are

not

all

here

yet

.

And

in

any

case

that

is

not

their

way

.

In

dark

and

loneliness

they

are

strongest

;

they

will

not

openly

attack

a

house

where

there

are

lights

and

many

people

--

not

until

they

are

desperate

,

not

while

all

the

long

leagues

of

Eriador

still

lie

before

us

.

But

their

power

is

in

terror

,

and

already

some

in

Bree

are

in

their

clutch

.

They

will

drive

these

wretches

to

some

evil

work

:

Ferny

,

and

some

of

the

strangers

,

and

,

maybe

,

the

gatekeeper

too

.

They

had

words

with

Harry

at

West-gate

on

Monday

.

I

was

watching

them

.

He

was

white

and

shaking

when

they

left

him

.
