DC is the home of mushy people

DC is full of 'mushy people,' said a new arrival in a postcard sent in 1910. Postcards were an early form of Twitter

What the new arrival to Washington D.C. wrote in 1910:

"Well I am at home here. I remember what you told me not long ago, but I've found company for there are more mushy people in this city than I ever saw before." Signed. Geo.
