In the Shadow of the Star: Discussion Thread (Part 1)

Nuru,

I have a question about the order of recent posts. Your post of 4-11 at 6:48 said this:

At the same time as the Shirriff was hearing of the man with the bundle over his shoulder,

Was this referring to the hobbit whom Frodo discovered in my post of 4/15, 2:14 p.m. That hobbit was a poacher and he and his grandson saw the bandit with the bag over his shoulder. The bandit told them he was looking for bad boys. Or was there another reference to a bandit with a bag you are alluding to that I might have missed?

If you're referring to the bandit seen by the poacher, shouldn't your post come later, immediately after mine? (Just the first part of your post, not he later part which is on a different topic.)

Please clarify. I may have this wrong in my head as I am trying to play catch-up now after several busy days. BTW, I'll be glad to paste it after mine, if that's what you want. Another possible alterntive---edit the reference to the bag and the bandit.
