Unite or die ending. Missing furniture?


I don't understand what's happening after adams is sworn in. He and Abigail go to a house missing furniture and looks to have been ransacked. What happened?

A slave explains it while they were moving it - It was where Washington lived and when he left office, all of the slaves and workers in the house took off with anything they could grab - "even the carpets" I remember was a line.
