Fraternal Order of Police distributes âShop with a Copâ gifts By Charles Herrington | December 19, 2020 at 7:22 PM CST - Updated December 19 at 7:22 PM
LAUREL, Miss. (WDAM) - The Laurel Fraternal Order of Police has carried on a Christmas tradition of making the holidays brighter for some less fortunate children.
Saturday, members of Lodge No. 2 of that organization distributed toys and other gifts for children in the âShop with a Copâ program.
It took place at the Laurel Police Training Center.
This year, because of the pandemic, officers handed out the gifts âdrive-thruâ style, rather than shopping with the youngsters in person.
Hamilton Mayhew Way: Strong when it counted
Dean Karau
The Star Courier
Born into a family of abolitionists, his moral compass was set at an early age. His upbringing and strength of character led to Black citizens arriving in our hometown within a decade of its founding.
Hamilton Mayhew Way was born in Ashtabula County, Ohio, in 1827, to Elisha A. and Anna Way. Elisha was a farmer and later a prosperous mill owner. He and Anna soon had six more children.
Elisha and Anna became key components of the Underground Railway in Ohio, helping runaway slaves get to Canada. Any runaway who got as far as Lucasville, north of the Ohio River, received their aid.
