In 2265, Mathews attended Lieutenant Lee Kelso's memorial service that was held in the ship's chapel. (TOS novel: My Brother's Keeper: "Constitution").

Sometime in 2266, the real Matthews was killed and replaced by a Klingon agent, that was supposed to spy on Captain James T. Kirk and the Enterprise in the build-up to war. (TOS novel: The Edge of the Sword).

In 2266, Matthews and Rayburn accompanied Captain Kirk and Christine Chapel to the surface of Exo III to ascertain the location of Doctor Roger Korby's archaeological expedition. Both security officers were killed by the android Ruk. (TOS episode: "What Are Little Girls Made Of?").
