Marlborough, do hereby proclaim and notify
that the pieces or parcels of land set forth
in the Schedule hereunto annexed shall be
deemed to be, and the same shall be from
the date hereof Waste Lands of the Crown,
and shall be dealt with in accordance with
the provisions of the Land Regulations in
force within the said Province.

Given under my hand, and issued
under the Public Seal of the
Province, at Blenheim, this
