Gather round the fire, children. Grampa's gonna weave a tale most wonderful.

Long ago, there were halflings on a long and tortuous quest. Here is described a moment in time during that journey:

Sam busied himself with his pans. “What a hobbit needs with coney,” he said to himself, “is some herbs and roots, especially taters. Herbs we can manage, seemingly.”

Now in those days, a 'coney' was rabbit.

Flash forward well beyond the fourth age.

Then came a woman bearing the name Coney. And she was, as they say in the parlance of that time, white.

White rabbit.

Who else do we know who speaks of white rabbits?

Sleep well, my babies. Patriots are in control.
