This fonds consists of a diary kept by John S. Scott during the First World War, from 1916 to 1919. It includes notes relating to the outfitting of soldiers and the transport of men, equipment, and supplies overseas. It also contains diary entries concerning the movement of troops and the activities of men at the front (France), as well as relating to Scott's activities in England during the immediate post-war period, prior to his return to Canada in 1919.

The fonds also contains a few military orders, passes, rationing orders, personal bills, memoranda, and telegrams. Lastly it includes a programme of a grand concert held aboard H. M. Troopship "Canada" in March 1919, a copy of a statutory declaration of John Smith Scott probably signed about 1918, and a few newspaper clippings.
