ДЄfter dinner in Crickhollow, Frodo prepared to reveal to his friends that he was going to have to leave Crickhollow and go to Rivendell. On the appointed day, Merry was worried that Frodo was late and as the fog was getting thick, he crossed the Bucklebury Ferry towards Stock to see if his friends were lost just as he crossed, he saw Farmer Maggot's wagon approaching, bringing Frodo, Sam and Pippin. However, knowing that Frodo would begin a secret journey, also arranged for provisions and ponies, planning to accompany him. When Frodo sold Bag End to move to Crickhollow, Merry and Fredegar were told to wait for him and make preparations for his arrival. The Conspirators, sought to protect Frodo (and the Ring) without his knowledge. He heard Gandalf's instructions to Frodo for his departure, and warned his friends about it. All along, Sam Gamgee had been their 'chief investigator'. 3018 he noticed how Frodo was saying 'farewell' to his favourite places, selling Bag End to the Sackville-Bagginses, and secretive talks with Gandalf. He shared his secrets with a group of Frodo's friends, namely Samwise Gamgee, Peregrin Took, Fredegar Bolger. Since Bilbo's disappearance, he believed that Frodo would soon follow. Later Lobelia left angrily calling Frodo a 'Brandybuck', which Merry said was a compliment. He was present with his family at Bilbo's Farewell Party and the next day of Bilbo's disappearance, Frodo had a hard day keeping his things from unwanted hobbits who came to loot Bag End, and put Merry to keep an eye on them in order to rest until the Sackville-Bagginses came to Merry demanding to see Frodo. Merry kept this knowledge private but was always suspicious. This made teenage Meriadoc very curious and he even looked into Bilbo's private diary. Startled, he got through the hedge and walked along the field inside, and watched as Bilbo reappeared, and put a glint of gold in his pocket. 3000 Merry witnessed a strange scene: he saw Bilbo Baggins becoming invisible in order to avoid a meeting with the Sackville-Bagginses. With him they wandered in the Marish and were friends of Farmer Maggot. He was also first cousins with Peregrin Took. Claiming descent from Gorhendad Oldbuck, he also had Tookish blood through his mother, and also his father's grandmother, Mirabella Took. Meriadoc was the son of Saradoc and Esmeralda. After his participation to the War of the Ring, he eventually inherited the Mastership in Buckland after his father's death. Merry was an heir to the Brandybucks of Brandy Hall. He was one of the four Hobbits in the Fellowship of the Ring and later became the Knight of Rohan, participating in the slaying of the Witch-king of Angmar alongside Lady Г‰owyn.
