Blessing The Fishing Fleet At St Malo (1938)

St Malo, France. At the fishing harbour of St Malo, huge crowds turn out to see the Archbishop blessing the trawling fleet before it sets off for the fishing grounds off Newfoundland and Greenland. The Archbishop moves past each trawler on a launch. In contrast we see M/S of a modern French Navy warship. FILM ID: A VIDEO FROM BRITISH PATHÉ. EXPLORE OUR ONLINE CHANNEL, BRITISH PATHÉ TV.
