Entry #7 – At Bree
Last night was a very busy night. We first
reached Bree, and Sam, Pippin and I had a few drinks. Of course Sam had to have
a few too many, and he started telling the crowd about Bilbo’s Birthday and
almost told everyone about the ring. Lucky enough I heard him before he could
say anything, and I got on the table and started singing. The only problem is I
fell off the table and put on the ring, and that really got them talking.
We
also met Strider, he followed us back to our room. He knew about our journey
already, and told us a lot about the black Riders. He told us we shouldn’t stay
at the inn, and so we slept in the parlor and Strider kept watch. Back at my
house at the same time three black riders broke into my house and found it empty.
A while later Strider woke us up and showed us our rooms. They were torn apart,
everything was a mess, and our ponies were let loose. We also got a letter last
night from Gandalf telling us we should of left two months before we actually
did.
