The many friends of Dr. J. Russeil 
MacKinnon, especially members of 
the summer contingent who have pat- 
ronized him during their stay on the 
Shore, will be glad to know that he 
has opened an office for the practise 
of denistry in the Old South Build- 
ing, 2904 Washington street, Boston, 
where he will be on Mondays, Tues- 
days and Wednesdays. The constant 
demands of many of his Dorchester 
patrons, some of whom make the 
trip to Manchester for treatment, 
helped him decide to open a Boston 
office the first three days of the week. 
He is to continue his residence in 
Manchester and will keep his office on 
Church street open Thursdays, Fri- 
days and Saturdays. Dr. MacKinnon 
stands very high in the profession and 
the best wishes of his many friends 
are with him in this new venture.
