Statue holding a lantern – this represented the statue of Jacobs – a young man who froze to death while holding a lantern for George Washington as he crossed the river. George Washington made a statue of him to honor him for his bravery and service. We have seen these statues on lawns in the 60s and hated them because they seemed like they were disrespectful to Black people, but in reality they were symbols for the statue of Jocko Graves and also used on the Underground Railroad.
