"Black Monday – Easter Monday, 1360, when the cold was so intense, that the English troops before Paris, under Edward III, suffered severely. The expression must have been subsequently employed in a somewhat vague sense, and among other uses, by schoolboys, as it was an usual day for returning from the holidays."
