They are waiting to hear from the insurance company to see who is going to pay for the replacement. I don't think there is any doubt it will be replaced, probably just a matter of time. It was originally provided by the Daughters of the Confederacy and when they couldn't raise all the money Mr. Reuben H. Fishubrn donated the rest. Hopefully, they won't change it and replace it at the same spot. The courthouse just doesn't look right without it.
