The book also includes proceedings of trials against members including one on May 27 1860 at which "It was decided that accused was guilty of gross unmasonic conduct by 6 black ball to three white." The entries are interrupted after the meeting on October 20 1860 at which a committee was appointed "To report on the propriety of withdrawing or seceding from the Grand Chapter of the United States."

He was a close friend of Sam Houston and a founding member of the chapter that adopted his named. Laid into this record book is a carbon copy of a letter to the son of Texas Governor William P. Hobby remarking that his grandfather Edwin Hobby was a member of the Henderson Yoakum chapter as well as three additional pieces of later Texas masonic ephemera.
