Aragorn is right. I missed that. Way to go, Rian. "Tokens" is right.
You'd best run back in soon, or before we get to where we're clamoring for a quote!

Whew! haven't done this game for awhile! I'm such an old member, I remember when we first started it!
I only have one of the books in front of me right now, so I'll use it. A short quote, but hopefully one word will be hard: "W_a_/?/A/_u_r_e_/,/a/_a_/t_a_/c_l_s/_a_b_t_/c_n_e_/,/w_e_/h_/d_e_n'_/t_r_/t_e_r/_k_n_/i_t_/s_u_r_e_s/?/"

"What? A furrier, a man that calls gambits canter,
when he doesn't term their skunk into shutreeds?"

incorrect words - gambits, canter, term, skunk, shutreeds
 (I thought "furrier" would be hard!)

"What? A furrier, a man that calls/rabbits/c_n_e_/,
when he doesn't/turn/their/skins/into/s_u_r_e_s/?/" Is Bilbo the speaker?

'conies'?
Not sure about that other word.  Rian - you should try our 'Narnia Quote Game' down in CS Lewis forum.

Everything's right - just missing one word now
(nah, I just peeked in here for old times' sake)

I don't know the last word, either, but I think the speaker is Beorn.

Now that I think of it, you're probably right.

I'm pretty sure "squirrels" is wrong. I don't have my Hobbit copy.. loaned it out. But turning skins into squirrells would not do much for the job of a furrier and Squirrell has two Ls.
RIAN!!! PEEK BACK IN AGAIN FOR MORE OLD TIMES' SAKE!

Squirrel has one "L" in it. But I agree that it doesn't seem to fit the context.
Can't think of anything better right now, though.

Oh. You're right. It does have one L. That word is tricky!
"What? A furrier, a man that calls rabbits conies, when he doesn't turn their skins into/s_u_r_e_s/?/" For some reason I'm getting that that missing word is a sort of synonym with "curtains".

nvm. I checked. It IS "squirrels". What an odd thing to say!

I guess that for some reason, squirrel fur might be more valuable than rabbit fur?
