Thick volume, containing 760 pages, of which around 460 are blank. Manuscript by several hands, dated between 1731 and 1870 (last entry). On the front of the second sheet there is the following inscription: Livro q hade servir dos assentos dos Irmãos dos Passos desta V[ill]ª de Benavte. e principia a servir em o año de 1731. O Juiz da Ordem da Com[ar]ca. de Benav[en]te. Fr. Caetano Joze da Rocha. On the verso of the fourth sheet, an opening statement, signed by him, dated March 3, 1734. On the front of the sixth sheet, the title drawn in red and blue, with the initial I decorated in gold: Inventario desta Irmandade dos Santos Passvs anno de 1737, followed by eight chapter index sheets (with epigraphs in red and blue) and a curious alphabetical index of brothers, with the initials cut out in the outer margin. The volume includes more than 1,500 records, with identification of the brothers, date of entry into the brotherhood, alms and other information. The first seat dates from March 6, 1731 and the last from March 27, 1870. It retains the solid binding of the period, entirely in calfskin, with dry decoration on the planes and a large flap covering the cut of the drip and extending over the back plane (with remains of the nastro clip). The Our Lord of the Passion of Vila de Benavente was responsible for establishing the Cruzeiro do Calvário, in the square with the same name, in 1644. About the Brotherhood the Holy Cross you should see: Almeida, Justino Mendes de, Compromissos da Confraria e Irmandade dos Santos Passos da Vila de Benavente, in Estudos Benaventinos, Ano I, Benavente, 1957, pp. 27-33.
