The Bank of Ottawa was established in 1874 and amalgamated with the Bank of Nova Scotia on April 30, 1919. By the time The Great War had ended, 188 staff members of the Bank of Ottawa had enlisted for military service – 21 made the supreme sacrifice; 17 were wounded; 5 were made prisoners; and 2 were reported missing. 

As a memorial to staff who gave their lives in the Great War, the Bank of Nova Scotia commissioned about 60 bronze tablets, between July 1920 and February 1921, to be placed on the wall of the branch where each known staff member was employed when they joined the military forces. These plaques listed the names of staff killed on the field, as well as those who died from their wounds after they returned home from the war.

Second Lieutenant Douglas Paton Mcrae Brown worked at the Bank of Ottawa Main Branch, Regina, Saskatchewan.
