Well as far as I understand, Free and Accepted Masons is open to Mature Age (21) and a proper answer to Three questions. We just Initiated a new Candidate last Tuesday from a completely different town as he had just moved to ours. He was sponsored from three of his friends that are Lodge members in his old town. We made a motion, sent out our investigating committee and then balloted in the standard manner, all were favourable. He is now initiated and all our Brethren support him and will offer to help him with his work.
