During his chieftainship, the hobbits of the Shire flourished under the protection of the Rangers, with Tobold Hornblower planting the first pipe-weed in the Southfarthing, and the tenth Thain, Isengrim Took II, started digging the Great Smials.[3]
Arahad died in 2719, after having ruled for 65 years, and was followed by his son, Arassuil.[2]
