sallkid has just left Hobbiton.
Approaching the Inn, Hop had a good viewpoint on the scenario. He watched the two hobbit children pull up thier cart with mild disinterest, he was more worried by the shouting coming from up the lane, Hop had been forced to hide from dogs on his forays, covering his tracks with stinking mud, but wolves (and he was fairly sure the shouting had said something about wolves) he knew little about, other than the stories he had made up himself to exagerate his adventures.

If Hop knew anything about hiding it was that if one did not want to be seen, one should avoid going toward a disturbance. Nevertheless even his heart couldn't stand the sound of someone in trouble, for he was not a heartless hobbit despite his meaness and greed. With a sigh of regret at his own bravery, he unslung his sling, deposited the game in a cranny under a bush and started up the road toward the shouting, running and screaming trying to make himself as big as possible.
