In briefanswer capsule

A Dunlending known as the squint-eyed southerner acted for the Witch-king in Bree. Once the Witch-king saw how useful that village might be for news if traffic ran between the Shire and Rivendell, he bound the man with dread and sent him there. He is the figure so named at the Inn. Drafts of that period also set him beside reports of Saruman's earlier traffic with the Shire over the Halflings' leaf.
