The collection contains a photocopy of Scofield's "Autobiography of a Pioneer Minister from 1823 to 1898," which was completed when he was seventy-five years old. In the autobiography, Scofield quotes from his own diary which he kept from about 1860 (see page 47). For the period preceding 1860, his narrative is based on recollection.

In addition to the autobiography, the collection contains a genealogical record for the Scofield family.
