Title: Mayor Wanted

He'll take it on in the end. It's not just Mr. Frodo's telling him so, but that he knows it's a job that needs doing. Not that half the village hasn't been bringing their troubles up the Hill already. Old Will was never much of a Mayor for anything but the banquets, nor ever needed to be, but times have changed, and my Sam changed with them. He's got the heart to care about what folks need, and the hobbitsense to tell when what they want isn't what's best for them. He doesn't see it, not yet, but he will.
