PROCLAMATION.

By JOHN WILLIAMSON, Esquire, Superintendent of the Province of Auckland, in the Colony of New Zealand.

WHEREAS by an Ordinance passed in the eighth year of the reign of Her Majesty Queen Victoria, by the Governor of New Zealand, with the advice and consent of the then Legislative Council thereof, intituled "An Ordinance to empower Owners and Occupiers of Land within certain Districts to repair and maintain Highways and Public Works within the same, and to make and levy rates for defraying the expenses thereof," it was enacted that if the major part of the persons qualified to become Electors (in the manner in the said Ordinance mentioned) within any District, should apply in writing to His Excellency the Governor, distinctly setting forth the boundaries of such District, and requesting that the same might be declared to be a District within the provisions of the said Ordinance, His Excellency might by Proclamation declare the same to be such District, and by such Proclamation should prescribe a period within which all claims to the right of voting at the Election of the first and every succeeding Board of Commissioners for such District should be made: AND WHEREAS by an Act passed by the Superintendent of the Province of Auckland, with the advice and consent of the Provincial Council thereof, intituled "An Act to transfer certain powers and duties from the Governor and Colonial Treasurer of New Zealand to the Superintendent and the Provincial Treasurer of the Province of Auckland respectively," it was amongst other things enacted that all the Acts authorized or required to be performed by and all the powers given to the said Governor by the said recited Ordinance should thenceforth cease to be performed, by the said Governor, and should and might thereafter be performed and exercised as fully and effectually for all intents and purposes within the Province of Auckland by the Superintendent thereof as the same could before the passing of the said Act be done and exercised by the said Governor: AND WHEREAS the major part of the persons entitled to become Electors within the District hereinafter set forth have applied to me in manner in the said Ordinance directed to declare the same to be a District within the provisions of the said Ordinance.

Now, therefore, in pursuance of the said powers and authorities in me vested, I, the said Superintendent, do hereby proclaim and declare that all that portion of the Parish of Wangarei, in the County of Marsden, bounded on the South and West by the southern and western boundary of Carruth’s Grant, from the junction of the Hatea River and Wai-arohia Creek to where the said boundary joins Mair’s Grant; thence by the western boundary of Mair’s Grant to where it joins the Kamo Block at Kete Nikau; thence by the western boundary of the Kamo Block to the Waitaua Creek; thence following the course of Waitaua to its junction with the River Hatea; thence by the River Hatea to its junction with the Wai-arohia Creek aforesaid, including all the Roads and Landing-places within the before mentioned boundaries, shall form a District within the provisions of the said Ordinance, to be called the Wangarei District, and that the period within which all claims to the right of voting at the Election of the first and every succeeding Board of Commissioners for such District shall be made, shall be between the first and the thirty-first day of July in each and every year.
