I came across this when re-reading some things in FOTR(The Shadow of the Past)….
Quote:
‘But what about these Tree-men, these giants, as you might call them? They do say that one bigger than a tree was seen up away beyond the North Moors not long back.’
etc, etc, etc
‘But this one was as big as an elm tree, and walking- walking seven yards to a stride, if it was an inch’
‘Then I bet it wasn’t an inch. What he saw was an elm tree, as like as not.’
‘But this one was walking, I tell you; and there ain’t no elm tree on the North Moors.’

It seems to me that these might be Ents, or maybe even the so called Ent-Wives? What does
everybody else think?
