From the adventure map given to Abby and Xander:
"More than 300 slaves lived at Mount Vernon and worked in George Washington's Mansion, gardens, outbuildings, and on his outlying farms. Many slaves spent their entire lives at Mount Vernon and are buried not far from the tomb of George Washington. The Slave Memorial was built to pay tribute to the many African Americans who are buried here in unmarked graves. The monument is encircled by the words Faith, Hope and Love."
