He was educated at Stonyhurst College and Trinity College, Dublin, graduating in 1846.[2] He became a member of the Irish Bar on the Munster circuit, was called to the bar at Lincoln's Inn in 1851 and practiced mainly at the Chancery Bar. In October, 1861 he was appointed Queen's Advocate in Gold Coast acting as Chief Justice until confirmed in the position in April, 1863. The following year he was appointed Lieutenant-Governor of the Gold Coast. In 1866 he moved to south-east Asia to be Recorder of the Prince of Wales's Island (Penang Island).[3] He was knighted on his appointment as Recorder and in 1871 was appointed Acting Chief Justice of the Straits Settlements.[2] After heading up the courts as Chief Justice of Fiji from 1875 to 1876, he was appointed Chief Justice of Ceylon on 3 February 1877, to fill the vacancy created by the retirement of Edward Shepherd Creasy. He remained Chief Justice for only a few months as he died in 1877 of cholera while in office. He was succeeded by John Budd Phear.[4][5][6] References1. ^{{cite news |title= Obituary: Death of the Chief Justice of Ceylon |work=The Times |publisher=The Times Digital Archive |date= 21 May 1877|page=6 }} {{s-start}}{{s-legal}}{{s-bef|before=Edward Shepherd Creasy}}{{s-ttl|title=Chief Justice of Ceylon|years=1877}}{{s-aft|after=John Budd Phear}}{{s-end}}{{Chief Justices of Sri Lanka}}{{Hackett-court}}{{authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Hackett, William}}2. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://archive.thetablet.co.uk/article/26th-may-1877/22/general-news|title= General News, 1877|publisher= thetablet|accessdate= 11 August 2016}} 3. ^Recorder was a title given to some judges at the time :Singapore Legal History: The Development of the Court System. 4. ^{{cite book|last=Amerasinghe|first=A.
