p 15: Sept 1839, "Opened door for reception of members, received Bro. James Brock."
p 23: April 1846, "James Brock came forward with respect to a charge that he got drunk, used bad language and wanted to fight. He said as for getting drunk that he denied it though he had drank some several draws that day, and said if he used improper language he did not recollect it. He stated that he had done wrong and was very 'sorrow' for it. The acknowledgement was received and he retained his seat."
pp 24-5: July 1847, "J. J. Lewis stated that he saw James Brock a month ago 'disguisd in liquor' and used language that did not become a Christian. The case was laid over." Sept 1847, "The case of James Brock taken up. Bro. Brock denied the charge brought against him by J. J. Lewis. Bro. Lewis failed to prove the charge to the satisfaction of the church, so the church dismissed the reference."

June 1853, "G.C. Fortinberry stated the report that James Brock had been 'taking a drunken frollick for several days.' The church appointed B.W. Leggiett, Uriah Bowman and Jeremiah Smith to cite him to attend. 23 July 1853, James Brock was present and said he would not acknowledge the charge, nor would he deny it 'and requested the church to race his name from the book.' The church voted to exclude him from fellowship."
