Alert Officers Are Given Testimonial And Santa ClauH came to the home of Dallas Mahoney and Elmer Nolan, members of the Camden police department. And this Santa Cinua was none other than Henry S. Porter, agriculturist, whoso barns, stock and equipment was wiped out In one of the1 most disastrous fires in the rural sections in years. Tuesday morning's mail brought of-: fleers Mahoney and Nolan a Une letter from a real sportsman and gentleman, the letter to each enclosing a J crisp new $5 bill. The letter wa8| from Mr. Porter and extended to the, officers the sincere appreciation of the writer for their service in uwakonlng ills family when they discovered the fire when over four miles away. And the mail also brought a fine letter of appreciation to Police Commissioner Charles Shannon, 4th, Mr. I Porter expressing his thanks for the service rendered by Commissioner, Shannon's wideawake and alert officers. And our own humble observation is that Henry Porter proved himself a gentleman and a sportsman in demonstrating that despite the blow dealt hint by the fire fiend, he was determined to express his appreciation in a manner that the two officers would best appreciate. And to the Camden police department. an expression of pleasure that they were on the job. P. C.
