This sous-fond contains journals written by W.J. Proudfoot, the grandson of James Dinwiddie. Proudfoot's journals record daily events in both his personal and professional life. The first file contains a notebook with a biography of his father, James Proudfoot, who was Dinwiddie's son-in-law. Proudfoot also wrote a story of a watch owned by Dinwiddie and passed onto Proudfoot through his father. The entry culminates with the trial of the man who stole the watch and the rumours of the watch's possible fate.
