never see the inside of Bag End now or it is to be hoped not.
Theres a tidy bit of money tucked away up there I hear
tell said a stranger a visitor on business from Michel Delving in
the Westfarthing. All the top of your hill is full of tunnels packed
with chests of gold and silver and jools by what Ive heard.
Then youve heard more than I can speak to answered the
Gaffer. I know nothing about jools. Mr. Bilbo is free with his money
and there seems no lack of it; but I know of no tunnelmaking. I saw
Mr. Bilbo when he came back a matter of sixty years ago when I was
a lad. Id not long come prentice to old Holman (him being my dads
cousin) but he had me up at Bag End helping him to keep folks from
trampling and trapessing all over the garden while the sale was on.
And in the middle of it all Mr. Bilbo comes up the Hill with a pony
and some mighty big bags and a couple of chests. I dont doubt they
were mostly full of treasure he had picked up in foreign parts where
there be mountains of gold they say; but there wasnt enough to fill
tunnels. But my lad Sam will know more about that. Hes in and out of
Bag End. Crazy about stories of the old days he is and he listens to
all Mr. Bilbos tales. Mr. Bilbo has learned him his letters
meaning no harm mark you and I hope no harm will come of it.
Elves and Dragons! I says to him. Cabbages and potatoes are
better for me and you. Dont go getting mixed up in the business of
your betters or youll land in trouble too big for you I says to
him. And I might say it to others he added with a look at the
stranger and the miller.
