Explanation:

In Edgar Allen Poe's short story "The Cask of the Amontillado", the narrator Montresor had always looked for a chance to finally get his revenge n his friend Fortunato for always insulting him numerous times. So, taking advantage of his friend's interest in wines, he invited him over for a taste of the new and valuable wine from Amontillado.

Once in through the vaults, Montresor began talking about his family being Masons. The given passage shows how Fortunato finds it hard to believe that his friend Montresor is a Masons. The Masons are a group of secret societies in ancient history known for their fraternal society. So, it is understandable for Fortunato to believe that his friend is an actual member of the Freemasonry society.
