Best Answer

The capital didn't exist when Washington died. He had a Masonic funeral at Mt. Vernon and Martha refused to attend. She watched from an upstairs window. Afterwards she closed off his bedroom and moved into a room on the third floor of the house and refused to go into it again. Since news travelled more slowly in those days it may have taken awhile before many people knew he had died.
