Utöver det faktum att Bilbo väljer att Frodo ska vara hans arving, finns det mer långa orsaker till fejden mellan Bilbo och Sackville-Bagginses?
Deras fejd kommer från Bilbos återkomst från hans äventyr i Hobbit :
Bilbo's cousins the Sackville-Bagginses were, in fact, busy measuring his rooms to see if their own furniture would fit. In short Bilbo was "Presumed Dead," and not everybody that said so was sorry to find the presumption wrong.
...
Many of his silver spoons mysteriously disappeared and were never accounted for. Personally he suspected the Sackville-Bagginses. On their side they never admitted that the returned Baggins was genuine, and they were not on friendly terms with Bilbo ever after. They really had wanted to live in his nice hobbit-hole so very much.
Bilbo tycker att de stal från honom Sackville-Bagginses känns som att Bag End blev stulen ut från under sina näsor från sin återkomst (och då en gång genom att Frodo blev gjord arving):
'Ours at last!' said Lobelia, as she stepped inside. It was not polite; nor strictly true, for the sale of Bag End did not take effect until midnight. But Lobelia can perhaps be forgiven: she had been obliged to wait about seventy-seven years longer for Bag End than she once hoped. (The Fellowship of the Ring)
