There are a few clues in what Pippin himself says:
Quote:
Boromir... saved me in the snows of the North, and at the last he was slain defending me from many foes.
Little service can I offer..., but what I can do, I would do, remembering Boromir the brave.
I honour his memory... he died to save us.
Little service, no doubt, will so great a lord of Men think to find in a hobbit, a halfling from the northern Shire; yet such as it is, I will offer it, in payment of my debt.
I have the impression that Pippin offers himself to Denethor as a substitute for the son who died for his sake.
