Biography
Charley Hackett managed the Hotel Haines in Haines, Alaska during the late nineteenth century.
In 1894, Jack Dalton, with the financial backing of John Maloney, acquired land from the widow of George Dickinson, the first trader in the area. Dalton constructed a warehouse, a store, and later the Hotel Haines on the Dickinson tract.
Dalton continued his freighting business while leaving the management of the hotel to Hackett.
