On December 7th, the Juniata County Historical Society received a very special donation from Ruth Eddy, publisher of the Lewistown Sentinel. Ms. Eddy’s donation was an oil Painting done by local artist Dennis Hutchings of the Tuscarora Female Seminary, which the Sentinel purchased to use in one of their publications. The Tuscarora Female Seminary was established in 1847 as only secondary school for women in the county,and operated about 25 years. The society is very grateful for this donation and we are excited to add it to our collection of county history!
