Try as she might, Gilly’s arguments to her parents fell on deaf ears. She sighed, wishing it could be different but she had made up her mind and intended to go to Hobbiton. Taking pen and paper, she wrote a short note to Amaranthas:

Miz Amaranthas Bolger
Hobbiton, Westfarthing, The Shire

24 Thrimidge (23 Lotessë)

My dear Miz Amaranthas,

You cannot begin to know how your letter filled me with delight. Your kind offer to introduce me to Mistress Piosenniel has filled me with just the resolve I needed to pack up what little I own and to strike out for Hobbiton.

It would be best, I think, if I could leave soon and head east from here. In fact, I think I shall be able to set out tomorrow. I’ll be on foot, so it will take about three good days of walking to come to Hobbiton.

If you would be so kind as to allow me to stay at your home until I am needed by Mistress Piosenniel, I would much appreciate it.

Thank you, once again, for thinking of me and offering this opportunity.

Best regards,

* Gilly *
