The Old Forest

The foursome (Bingo, Odo, Frodo, and Marmaduke) were to next set out through the Old Forest. There are snippets of notes. Again, as has been discussed over and over, the bones of the story seem set (the Old Forest is menacing, the Willow-man, the Barrow-wight, etc) but the details are not fully fleshed out yet. Perhaps the most interesting thing about these early notes is their encounter with Tom Bombadil was to be quite brief and after the they were captured in a Barrow.
