- Emperor Claudius II of Rome wanted to grow his army, but many men did not want to volunteer and leave their wives and children. So, he passed a law prohibiting marriage.

- Be my Valentine!

- Alas! Valentine was discovered. Roman guards arrested him for breaking the emperor's law. He was condemned to death and sent to prison.
- While in prison, people sent him messages saying that they agreed with him. The jailer's daughter talked with him and learned from him. They became friends.
- Before he was beheaded on February 14th, he had signed a message for his friend saying, From your Valentine. Today, we send similar messages and tokens of love to our friends and loved ones on Valentine's Day.
