'We are just going up the Hill to remove your precious Boss....'
Ted gaped, for at that moment he first caught sight of the escort that... now marched over the bridge. Dashing back into the mill he ran out with a horn and blew it loudly.
'Save your breath!' laughed Merry.... Then lifting up his silver horn he winded it, and its clear call rang over the Hill; and out of the holes and sheds and shabby houses of Hobbiton the hobbits answered, and came pouring out, and with cheers and loud cries they followed the company up the road to Bag End.
