EVERYONE GOT A PLACE

The missus likes them family trees. Of course, names is all she can read and that's for the best. Females don't have the brains for readin'. I could have married better. She tricked me into it, for the bairns sake. Females got no strength, so they use cunnin'.

I'm a Sandyman and we was well placed, until that Drogo came to Hobbiton. Grandda warned us to keep an eye on them Baggins', with their airs and graces. Readin' and writin' for folk was grandda's job until they came, and a good earner it was. Now theres just this old mill.

END
