"He's in and out of Bag End. Crazy about stories of the old
days he is, and he listens to all Mr. Bilbo's tales. Mr. Bilbo has learned him his letters - meaning no harm, /_a_k/ you, and I hope no harm will come of it." speaker: The Gaffer!

That's all correct so far.
The speaker "is commonly known as the Gaffer", so that's correct as well. Do you - btw - know his full name? Only one word left.

Oh - is it 'mark'? (the word, not Gaffer's real name).
 I'm trying to remember the name... not certain, but is he 'Hamfast'?

'mark' is the word, and 'Hamfast' is the name. Hamfast Gamgee, in full.
So that's it! Quote:

'For' is not correct - the other words are.

big /birds/ eat fishes:

"Oh, oh, oh. We never went that far,
but they say it goes a hundred leagues, until you can see the Great Water that is never still. There are lot of fishes there, and big birds eat fishes: nice birds: but we never went there, alas no! we never had a chance. And further still there are more lands, they say, but the Yellow Face is very hot there, and there are seldom any clouds, and the men are fierce and have dark faces. We do not want to see that land." I'll go with Varna's adds - and a few of my own. Plus - I changed an 'and' to an 'any'
