Side with the former slaves
The quest is given to the Lone Wanderer in the Temple of the Union by Hannibal Hamlin. Hamlin wants to relocate his slave haven from the Temple of the Union to the Lincoln Memorial and restore the memorial as a sign of freedom. The quest may also be started after speaking with Leroy Walker or killing the slavers at the Lincoln Memorial.

Hamlin requests for the player character to scout the Lincoln Memorial to see if it is still occupied by super mutants and if so, kill them. He will also ask the player character to assist Caleb Smith in finding a picture of the Lincoln Memorial which will serve as reference material for restoring the location. The picture of the memorial is located on the second floor of the Museum of History.

The player character must return to the Temple of the Union, at which time Lincoln's head will be secured to the back of a brahmin and the group will leave for the memorial. The player character will then meet the group outside of the Mall Metro Northwest entrance. The Lone Wanderer can tell the group to wait or accompany them as they attack the slavers. There are eight slavers present, and once killed, speaking to Hamlin completes the quest.

Side with the slavers
The first time the player character talks to Leroy Walker, he will ask them to find items related to Lincoln. The second time the player character talks to Walker, or after they trade the first Lincoln item, Walker will ask the player character to locate Hannibal Hamlin. The player character can tell Walker where the slaves reside, causing the group to leave the memorial for the Temple of the Union. Meeting the group under the highway west of the Temple of the Union, speaking to Walker will begin the attack. The death of all slaves within will complete the quest.
