In   the 16th  century this amusing obaervance of the day was popular with'the  upper! classes  and   in    vogue    in    European courts.    X^e   imaginary  engagements j made  in  sport on  that day were sup-1 posed  to  hold   good through the year and  often  resulted   in   weddings.    In; later times the observance degenerated j to  the  ^nding of tender or ridiculous j Q^'jj'j"" love  letters.
