Bill Ferny

Was a man from Bree. He is known by others residing in Bree as a very unpleasant person. He was disliked by all at birth, and his reputation did not improve with age. Ferny was a direct supporter of Saruman's mechanization of Isengard. Even though he tried to avoid aiding the Fellowship as they passed through, he sold a pony named Bill for twenty silver pennies to Meriadoc Brandybuck, replacing his that were stolen the previous night. Later, towards the end of the War, he became a watchmen of the Buckland gate. The pony named Bill repaid his former master for his mistreatment by putting a well placed kick to his hindquarters. His later fate is not recorded. --Quidon88 22:35, 11 June 2006 (UTC)
