Educated at See also:Glasgow University and brought up as a See also:Protestant, See also:young Patrick was married See also:early in See also:life to See also:Elizabeth See also:Lyon, daughter of Lord See also:Glamis, whom he repudiated almost directly; and afterwards went to See also:France, where the joined the See also:friends of Mary, queen of Scots, became a See also:Roman See also:Catholic, and assisted the See also:French policy of the Guises in See also:Scotland
.
He returned and took up his See also:residence again in Scotland in 1583, and immediately began a career of treachery and intrigue, gaining James's favour by disclosing to him his See also:mother's secrets, and acting in agreement with James See also:- STEWART, ALEXANDER TURNEY (1803-1876)

order to keep Mary a prisoner in England
.
In 1584 he was sent as See also:ambassador to England, to effect a treaty between James and Elizabeth and to exclude Mary
.
His ambition incited him at the same time to promote a See also:plot to secure the downfall of Arran
.
This was supported by Elizabeth, and was finally accomplished by letting loose the lords banished from Scotland for their participation in the See also:rebellion called the See also:Raid of Ruthven, who, joining Gray, took See also:possession of the See also:- KING

Gray now became the intermediary between the See also:English See also:government and James on the See also:great question of Mary's See also:execution, and in 1587 he was despatched on an See also:embassy to Elizabeth, ostensibly to See also:save Mary's life
.
Gray had, however, previously advised her See also:secret assassination and had endeavoured to overcome all James's scruples; and though he does not appear to have carried treachery so far as to advise her See also:death on this occasion, no representations made by him could have had any force or See also:weight
.
The execution of Mary caused his own downfall and loss of See also:political See also:power in Scotland; and after his return he was imprisoned on charges of plots against Protestantism, of endeavouring to prevent the king's See also:marriage, and of having been bribed to consent to Mary's death
.
He pleaded guilty of See also:sedition and of having obstructed the king's marriage, and was declared a traitor; but his life was spared by James and he was banished from the See also:country, but permitted to return in 1589, when he was restored to his See also:- OFFICE (from Lat. officium, " duty," " service," a shortened form of opifacium, from facere, " to do," and either the stem of opes, " wealth," " aid," or opus, " work ")
office of master of the See also:wardrobe to which he had been appointed in 1585
.
His further career was marked by lawlessness and misconduct
.
In 1592, together with the 5th Lord See also:Bothwell, he made an unsuccessful See also:attempt to seize the king at See also:Falkland, and the same See also:year earned considerable discredit by bringing groundless accusations against the Presbyterian See also:minister, See also:Robert See also:Bruce; while after the king's See also:accession to the English See also:throne he was frequently summoned before the authorities on See also:account of his conduct
.
Notwithstanding, he never lost James's favour
.
In 1609 he succeeded his See also:father as 6th See also:Baron Gray, and died in 1612
.
Gray was an intimate friend of Sir See also:- PHILIP
- PHILIP (Gr.'FiXtrsro , fond of horses, from dn)^eiv, to love, and limos, horse; Lat. Philip pus, whence e.g. M. H. Ger. Philippes, Dutch Filips, and, with dropping of the final s, It. Filippo, Fr. Philippe, Ger. Philipp, Sp. Felipe)
- PHILIP, JOHN (1775-1851)
- PHILIP, KING (c. 1639-1676)
- PHILIP, LANOGRAVE OF HESSE (1504-1567)
Philip See also:Sidney, but, if one of the ablest, handsomest and most fascinating, he was beyond doubt one of the most unscrupulous men of his See also:day
.
He married as his second wife in 1585 Mary Stewart, daughter of Robert, earl of See also:Orkney, and had by her, besides six daughters, a son, Andrew (d
.
1663), who succeeded him as 7th Baron Gray
.
Andrew, who served for a See also:long time in the French See also:army, was a supporter, although not a very prominent one, of See also:Charles I. and afterwards of Charles II
.
He was succeeded as 8th Lord Gray by Patrick (d
.
1711), a son of his daughter See also:Anne, and Patrick's successor was his kinsman and son-in-See also:law See also:John (d
.
1724)
.
On the extinction of John's See also:direct See also:line in 1878 the See also:title of Lord Gray, passed to See also:George See also:Stuart, earl of See also:Moray
.
In 16o6 Gray had been ranked See also:sixth among the Scottish baronies
