No, someone different. One person was almost as old as one boy's uncle. But it's vague description, so it refers to... well, certain situation... it's surely possible to guess it easily.

A hint? Hmm... what about this: The boy said it. (Meaning the boy said that that person X is almost as old as his uncle.)

How silly of me not to get this before...
It's Pippin, right?
And in that case the boy is Bergil. I think I was all too concentrated on Bagginses and other Hobbiton hobbits when trying to solve this one.
