In February, 1864, he re-enlisted in the Signal Corps of the U. S. A. and served until the close of the war. After the war he engaged successfully in the grocery and clothing business. In June, 1869, he was employed by the P. R. R. Co. and sent as assistant ticket agent to Derry. In 1871 he was transferred to Pittsburgh, where he acted for three years as storekeeper. In 1874 Mr. Hackett was appointed ticket and freight agent at Derry.
