The George Johnston fonds consists mainly of his lecture notes for his courses in New Testament and Laity courses given at the United Theological College (1969-1983), notes for the Bruce lectures (1943), drafts and clippings of his published articles. Lecture notes on various topics on church, church society and church union are also part of the fonds.

The fonds comprises of five published reports regarding the organization, design, construction and progress of the St. Lawrence Seaway Project (1956-1963), and ten diaries mainly on the daily accounts of work performed on the Seaway. The diaries were kept while Kohl was engineer on St. Lawrence Seaway project covering the years 1953-1963.

A telegram to George Glassco reports that Gordon Bond Glassco has been wounded in action.

Fonds primarily documents Armstrong’s social life. They consist overwhelmingly of correspondence for the period 1909-1933. Letters from his professional colleagues, such as Sir William Osler, F.J. Shepard, Edward Archibald, William J. Mayo and others in the Mayo Clinic, are concerned largely with personal greetings, association memberships, or Medical Faculty business, particularly honorary degrees. Armstrong's non-medical correspondents include Lord Beaverbrook, Lord Atholstan, Sir Hugh Allan, Arthur Meighen, George Foster and Herbert Symonds. Topics include politics, Armstrong's war work and honours, some medicals matters, and personal news. Appended to this main series are obituaries and letters of sympathy to Armstrong's widow (1933), six photographs, including one of Armstrong in an operating room, and admission cards and diplomas from Armstrong's student years.

Miner's papers comprise two elementary school notebooks, and a full series of lecture notes, assignments, and laboratory projects, largely in Mechanical Engineering, produced during his course at McGill.

Livingston's commonplace-book contains poems (some it would appear, of his own composition) and prose passages on love and various philosophical topics. They include extracts from J.W. Dawson's Archaia. He also used the book for lecture notes for medical courses; surgery (Dr. G. Campbell), chemistry (Dr. M.O. Sutherland) and pathology (Dr. William Fraser).
