The Feast of St. Valentine in Arcadia

In Arcadia, as in some other districts, today is the Feast of St. Valentine, a celebration of love and union, as witnessed in these photographs of a salmon fishing holiday in the sun, taken in the year 1935 and sold to me by reputable dealer in photographs.   For the record the scales at the Glenalovan Hotel weighed the fish in at 9lb 4ozs.
