367 Under Courts and Bar Cameron County.
Quote: "The first record book of Cameron County courts is dated January 8, 1861, when Judge R. G. White, with Associate Housler presided in the school-house. S. S. Hackett was crier, and, along with D. J. Morrison, acted as tipstaff."

We pick up the name of Hackett again under Centennial Association. Quote: "The county organization for the purpose of making arrangements for and carrying out the celebration of the Centennial Fourth in 1876, comprised on committee for arrangements Emporium S.S. Hacket, etc."

In the year of 1861 S.S. Hacket was elected to the school board with 69 votes.

The Driftwood Logging Company was chartered September 9, 1884, with S.S. Hacket and H. L. Hacket, of Emporium, and the Howards and A.P. Perley, of Williamsport, stockholders.

In the year of 1855 S.S. Hacket paid $25. for a retailers license in Emporium.

The petition asking the incorporation of the borough of Emporium was presented in July, 1864, by A.E. Kelly, C.C. Fay, J. W. Martin, S.S. Hacket, L.G. Cook, G. W. Warner, J. W. Phelps, J. W. Judd, George Metzger, Washington Burks, and Amos Chandler. The grand jury reported on this petition favorably in Oct. and the court of quarter-sessions on Oct. 13 granted the request. The first election was ordered to be held at L.G. Cook's Hotel, Nov. 15, 1864. In the special election for Emporium we find that D.B. Mather received 42 votes for Councilman. He did not win the election. In October a H. J. Hacket was elected as Councilman.

In 1867 S.S. Hacket served as Burgess of Emporium.

In 1889 S. S. Hacket received 149 votes was elected assistant Burgess.

In 1890 S.S. Hacket, a Democrat received 62 votes and was elected East Ward Councilman.

The post-office in East Emporium with S.S. Hacket, postmaster was established in March 1886. He served as auditor of the Emporium Fire Department when started in 1874.

Hacket and Sons had a $3000. loss in the flood of 1889.

The source from which this was gathered: Court records, cemetery records, family bible, and the "History of the Counties of McKean, Elk, Cameron, and Potter Pennsylvania" published by J. H. Beers and Co.

375 When Sarah E.W. Leitner was packing to migrate to Florida with her parents she was told to take only the absolute essentials. 8 year old Sarah begged so hard to bring a little rose bush (everblooming Louis Phillippe) that she was allowed to "carry it all the way on my lap". As long as Sarah lived she had a bush of this rose (also known as the Carolina Rambler) in her yard. She rooted hers under an over-turned Mason fruit jar. --told to C. Patrick Priest.

Sarah E.W. Leitner Griner Priest demonstrated the Leitner determination when the nineteenth amendment went into effect Aug.18, 1920. The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any state on account of sex. Aged 73 at this time Sarah went to the polls at the first opportunity and consulted with no one as to the most desirable candidates. (Told by her son Clarence C. Priest as he neared his 95th birthday. That same day Papa recalled that his grandpa, Jacob Leitner, Jr. ((1807-1884)) would become so wrought-up when he prayed at family prayer time, he could be heard a quarter mile away.

376 While it is based on circumstantial evidence, Dr. Russell Bynum
Proctor and Ben Proctor think that Wllliam Proctor, Sr. is the beginning
of Ben's line.

between 1611 and 1635. Vol.2 p27

NOTE: Two additional Proctors moved to Edgecombe County, North
Carolina. in 1760, Joshua (not our progenitor) of Surry County, Virginia,

379 WMU President
Sunday School Primary Superintendent for 35 years

From the "History of the First Baptist Church, Summerfield, FL":
The next daughter of J.D. and Emma was Ruth. Ruth married Ralph Cox, a Baptist deacon, and they were living in Ft. Meade, Florida prior to Ruth's parents joining our church. Several years after retirement, the Coxes moved to a home almost in the backyard of the original Proctor home. It was true happiness for Ruth to be back near her sisters who visited together very often and were in the same church each Sunday usually on the same pew.

381 Zada was Charley's darling for the few years that he lived after their marriage. (He was a widower with no children.) He bought Zada a new car which she learned to drive at a driver's school and they enjoyed life going fishing at "The Little Bridge" at New Smyrna Beach and visiting relatives.

Aunt Zada symbolizes the hard working, little money, proudness, fidelity, and courteousness of most of our old timers. She worked in the fields; scrimped in the kitchen; made every relative "feel at home"; saw her husband die of cancer; nursed her bedridden father-in-law; married a second time; learned to drive a car when well past middle-age; lost a beloved great grandchild to brain tumor; turned to her other great grandchildren for comfort; never drank, smoked, or cursed; still scrappy--if you think-that I admire this little 86 year-old bundle of energy--then you're right!
