William Penn’s Hat Still the Highest Point in the City

Greta the City Hall Tour Director was at my house for the Fourth. She admired my William Penn statue, I asked about hers and she said “I thought they were gonna give it back, but they really are going to keep it up there and try and break the curse!” She has a another one, its chipped though. Hmm should I give her mine?
