The status OF New AmIfates who
Pay Dues.

Nov. 18th, 1871.
Bno. PowER sit seems to me that we have
a singular case in our Lodge, in which I
would be glad to have your opinion. Bro.
was restored to the rights
and privileges of a Mason, last January a
year ago; but has not yet affiliated with
any Lodge. Has he the right TO visit a
Lodge, or join in 9 procession?
He wants 30 afEiIiate-but II satisfied that
he will be rejected. He Is willing to pay
his dues. Have we the right TO receive
them And IL so, what will be his standing
afterwards?
Yours etc,
ANSWER.
Section %, Bylaws for government
of Subordinate Lodges, provides that
any non affiliated Master Mason within
the jurisdiction of Lodge who shall
neglect or refuse to contribute annually to
its funds, (having the ability to do so)
an amount equal to the ordinary Lodge
dues, shall not be entitled to the rights,
benefits and privileges of the Lodge
that is to say: the right to visit and as
sociate with the regular members of the
Lodge; the right to ask and demand re-
lief and pecuniary aid from the Lodge,
or its funds, for himself or his family
the right to move or join in Masonic pro-
ces-ion; the right to Masonic burial.
Such being the penalties for neglect
ing and refusing to pay dues, it follows
that no such disabilities operate where
the non-affiIiate pays, or offers to pay,
the annual dues, as fixed by the Lodges
1t is his duty, however, to present his
petition for utilization, notwithstanding
he may be satisfied" that it will be re-
jected If rejected he can renew petit
ton in six months, or he may apply at
any other Lodge without such delay
(See. AZ Rev. Req His prejudice
against any particular member of the.
Lodge, or his conviction that the said
member might black-ball his petition,
should not prevent him from doing his
duty. Until he makes the effort to OBJ
tain membership, he must be regarded
as non-affiliate from choice; but, as
Bro. Mitchell remarks, in his Common
Law of Masonry, eff the Lodge rejects
him, he remains a non-affiliate Mason
against his will, and no censure can be
applied to him, for rejection for member
ship does not affect has standing"
Bro. Mitchell holds that voluntary
non-affiliated Masons should not have
funeral honors," but that Lodges may
grant such honors to involuntary non-af-
filiates, at discretion. In the particular
case before US, therefore, We should, if
w. NJ of the Lodge, rule that the first
duty of the non-affiliate is to present his
petition for membership. If rejected
and he pays his dues, we hold that he is
entitled to the usual rights and benefits
of Masonry.
