General Notes: Husband - Hon. Samuel T. Shugert


He commenced the publication of the Centre Democrat in Bellefonte, Pennsylvania, in 1835, and continued its publication until 1845 when he received an appointment in the U. S. Patent Office, Washington, D. C., where he remained until the administration of President Buchanan, when he was promoted to the office of Commissioner of Patents, retiring at the expiration of that administration. During his residence in Washington, the old Centre Democrat having passed out of Democratic control, and the party without an organ at the county seat, he purchased and established, with Henry Hays as editor, the Democratic Watchman, the first issue of which appeared on the 28th of November, 1855, and upon his return from Washington he was elected to the Legislature and the State Senate, after which time he established another newspaper in Bellefonte, taking the old name of the Centre Democrat, which he continued a publication of until a few years prior to his death.
