[MR] BBC: Scottish Origins of Freemasonry

[Garth Groff via Atlantia]

Noble Friends, Especially Freemasons and Fellow Scots,

Today the BBC is offering a very interesting summary story on the 
Scottish origins of Freemasonry. Surprisingly, Scottish Masonic lodges 
are documented as early as 1598. Mary's Chapel lodge at 19 Hill Street 
in Edinburgh has records dating to July 1599, making it the oldest 
proven and active Masonic lodge in the world, though 13 other Scottish 
lodges were known to exist at that time.

Yours Aye,
