  1. the answers to the puzzle:
    banter
    barter
    garter
    garner
    gurner

    the last answer left me clueless as i had never heard it before so it was necessary to look up the word gurner in the dictionary.

  3. I wondered about the last word also but didn't look it up. Thought maybe I didn't have the right 4th word.
