What was Peregrin according to the rumours in Gondor, and what did he allegedly had taken with him and given to the Rohirrim.

Re: Peregrin

A rumor had spread that Pippin was the Prince of the Halflings and that when the Rohirrim came each would be bringing a halfling warrior (described, I think, as small but doughty).

As is well known, Peregrin Took was thirty-second Thain of the Shire. Who were the thirty-first and the thirty-third. (And for heaven's sake, I expect names.<img src=wink.gif ALT=""> )

Where they Paladin II, Peregrin's Father, for the 31st, and Faramir I, Peregrin's son, for the 3rd?

Since nobody is asking a question, I'll go ahead. Who's daughter did Faramir (Peregrin's son) marry and what was her name? (This isn't too hard)

Faramir Took married Goldilocks nee Gamgee, one of Sam's younger daughters.
If Gwaihir arrives back at the board soon, he should have the right to ask next.

Hey! Watch it, Sammy, you nassty, anngry hobbit! That was my turn you stole there <img src=mad.gif ALT=">:"> . I answered correctly. The Eye is on you.
Thankyou, Galpsi. I shall proceed with a question, again about hobbits: In the Shire calendar, which month is immediately before the Overlithe, and how many days are in it?

If I recall this rightly, Hobbits used King's Reckoning. If that is right, then I think that the month before the midsummer-days of Overlithe was called Forelithe by most Hobbits but was called Lithe out east.

Yes, I will accept that, though you didn't state how many days were in Forelithe. All months in the Shire calendar had thirty days anyway, so go on.

Ok, you're both correct. I was hoping somebody else had compulsively visualized characters &quot;in armor&quot; throughout their adolescence. Turns out I'm the only nerd! (Hauberk of black steel rings, tall helmet surmounted with raven's wings and a silver star, black surcoat embroidered with a silver tree.) You just know that hobbit chicas were very impressed by the sight of the Thain-apparent riding around, big as a dwarf, done up in &quot;armor.&quot;
Anyway, Sharku or Kittle, whichever of you reads the confirmation first should feel free to ask since you both had accurate if un-compulsive answers.

The dimholt was the copse at Dunharrow just past the firienfeld. To reach it, one passed the pukel-men who flanked the road from Harrowdale.

The Pukel-men were indeed along the way to the Dimholt, lining the long climb up from the Harrowdale.

Galpsi gets to ask if he can tell what monuments lined the road in the Firienfeld.

Close enough, though the stones lining the path stood singularly and were not connected together into any type of structure. They were possibly the remains of statues similar to the Pukel-men (this is my own supposition).

My apologies; I thought that all standing stones were called (generically) dolmen. I did not realize that they had to be capped. It seems I should have used the term megalith or maybe menhir. You must be sorely disappointed.
