Hello. Please help me identify the silversmith, location and date of this shillelagh which has been in the family and no one left alive even remembers which family member owned it.
Thank You

Hi and welcome to the forum.
We recommend (and prefer) that images be embedded in posts as clicking on links is not something that everybody is comfortable doing. Here are your images:

Your Dublin hallmark is 1913 and not the similar gothic S of 1738. The maker's mark. HJ, is that of Henry Johnston, an umbrella and stick maker of Dublin, Belfast and Newcastle-on-Tyne.
