Shillelagh-bought in 1977
This is a modern version of a shillelagh, which in times past were used as a weapon. Originally made from blackthorn they had very strong thorns and in battle it be pushed through and enemies legs and pulled very roughtly through the private parts. This particular cane was bought in Ireland in 1977 and then used for several years by Fred.
