Brown had woken early and finished breakfast before most of his companions were awake. Now, as they ate breakfast, he waited by the door and rummaged through his pack one last time, making sure he had not forgotten anything. It seemed he hadn't. He had his staff, his short sword, his cooking gear, his wool blanket, extra clothes, rope, pipe and tobacco, and some basic food items.

It had been sometime since he had been out roaming with other hobbits, and now, as he waited, anxious to leave, he recalled why he had begun to stick to himself: company meant sitting. Rather than fidget, he pulled out the book he had found two days ago in the ruined farmhouse and thumped it down on the windowsill to read. He had gone through earlier and marked the correspondences that dealt with the topic of Entwives, and now he settled down to read them more thoroughly. They were, after all, supposed to be looking for Entwives, and he reckoned that anything he could learn about them now would be helpful later.
