Here's a tough one, with an H for Grondy to start it off:
_ / _ _ _ _ / _ H _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ / _ _ _
(8 words of lengths 1, 4, 5, 3, 2, 4, 2, and 3 respectively)
Best of luck.

I'll guess a G
Okay, as no one wanted to guess it and post the new one, I will: A king there was in days of old', which is the first line from the poem entitled 'The Gest of Beren and L’thien', which is found in The Lays of Beleriand, (H.O.M.E. Volume 3)
So try:
_ _ _ _ _ / _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ _ (four words of 5, 2, 6, and 7 letters length respectivly.)

Battle of Bywater? May not be the answer, but it fits. 
You've got it Grondy! *takes off hat* A very well done my friend... Just having sweet revenge on me from earlier? Touch’...
In fact I was going to PM you Grondy with the answer as I am going on vacation tomorrow and I won't be able to add in the letters, so this is better

Yes, 
we have one T for Mellon; two Rs for Rafael; and four Es for Caudimordax.
So now it reads:
T _ E / _ _ _ _ E _ _ _ E R / _ _ R _ _ E _
Hooray! No incorrect guesses.
If the next person's letter guessed also gives doulble the number of of the last person's, I'll be very surprized, as there are only thirteen blanks left and I don't think eight of them being the same letter would make a very Tolkienesque phrase.
