The King James Version (“KJV”) of the Bible is dedicated to King James VI as many Christians know. What many dont know, is that he might have been a free mason. This is taken from a freemason site and it says:
On the west wall of the lodge hall used by Lodge Scoon and Perth No. 3 in Perth, Scotland can be found a mural depicting James VI kneeling at their altar at his initiation. The oldest existing record of the Lodge, called “The Mutual Agreement” of 24 December, 1658, records that James was “entered Freemason and Fellowcraft of the Lodge of Scoon” on 15 April, 1601.
The Contract or Mutual Agreement of 24 December, 1658,1 claims that on 15th April 1601 James was initiated by his own Royal Master Mason, John Mylne II, noting on page 45:
“And his sone, Johne Milne being after his fathers deceis—preferred to the said office, and Mr. off the said Lodge in the reigne of his majestie King James the Sixt of blessed memorie, Who, by the said second Johne Mylne, was (be the King’s own desire) entered ffrieman, measone, and fellow craft. And during all his lyftyme he mantayned the same as ane member of the Lodge off Scone….”
