    Re: Hackett????

    Yea just a few miles from me here in Mansfield. Hackett during the coal mining boom was one of the larger cities in Sebastian County. During the big coal mining days, Hackett was home to forty stores, two cotton gins, a wagon factory, seven doctors, five lawyers, two dentists, and an opera house Haven't hunted there yet, but have a few contacts that maybe I can get permission from.
