Following the path that her ancestors took, the girl looked out at the wonders. As the plane approached the runway to land, she looked as far as her eyes could see. Out in the middle of the water, she saw a hand shooting up to the sky. The strong arm was holding something in its hand. “What is that?” she asks to herself. “Why it looks like a lighted torch.” The girl tries to keep the arm in view as the plane lands.
She hails the strange looking cabbie. She gets in the ugly smoke-filled cab and with a tremble in her voice, she says, “Please take to that strong arm in the sky.” The cabbie smiles and she see he has no teeth. He tells her thats an easy request. he drives the few miles to the water and says, “From here you must take the ferry to the Statue of Liberty.”
