ALFRED CANE

 

Alfred Cane, a dentist, whose office is at No. 6 Turk street, San Francisco, has been engaged in the practice of dentistry since 1865.  He was born in London, England, in 1849, and his early education was received in Australia, his parents having removed there when he was a child.  He commenced the study of dentistry in 1865, under the preceptorship of Dr. Charles Pardoeza, a celebrated dentist of Melbourne, Australia, with whom he studied five years.  At the conclusion of that time Dr. Cane came to San Francisco, where he engaged in the practice of his profession in 1870, and has continued for the past six years in his present office.  He has been the preceptor of several prominent dentists of San Francisco, and besides his devotion to his profession Dr. Cane has developed remarkable talent as an artist in modeling.  A plaster cast of the late Professor E. J. Griffith, of Fresno, who was lately killed by the cable cars in this city, is the latest evidence of his artistic skill in that direction.  It has a wonderful resemblance to the original.

 

Dr. Cane’s family have been for many years residents of London, England.  His father removed with his family in 1850 to Australia, and since that time he has been a resident of that country and New Zealand.  He has been a well-known business man of Melbourne, and also for about thirty years of Demedin, New Zealand.
