Barliman Butterbur was an innkeeper in the town of Bree in the Prancing Pony Inn. Nob was one of the two Hobbits that worked with him as a servant. Barliman had been charged with a task, by Gandalf the Grey, of delivering a letter to Hobbiton, to Frodo, but could not find anyone to deliver it, and eventually forgot about it. He eventually remembered after Frodo arrived.
He did buy Bill the Pony to compensate for the loss of Frodo’s ponies during the Nazgul raid on his Inn. Gandalf forgave him for forgetting to deliver the letter once he knew that Frodo had escaped safely.
