Legend #1• Valentine was a priest who served during the

third century in Rome. • When Emperor Claudius II decided that single

men made better soldiers than those with wives and families, he outlawed marriage for young men.

• Valentine, realizing the injustice of the decree, defied Claudius and continued to perform marriages for young lovers in secret. When Valentine's actions were discovered, Claudius ordered that he be put to death.
