One of the Old Charges, or records of Freemasonry now in the custody of the Grand Lodge of Scotland, was formerly preserved in the archives of the Aitchison-Haven Lodge, which met later on at Musselburgh in Scotland. The manuscript is engrossed in the Minute Book of Aitchison-Haven Lodge. The writer attests to his transcription in the following manner:

“Insert by me undersub and the 19th of May, 1666, Jo. Auchinleck, clerk to the Masones of Achisones Lodge.”

This manuscript has been reproduced, with 24 lines in facsimile, by D. Murray Lyon in his *History of the Lodge of Edinburgh*.
