Secondly, That a new arrangement shall
be now entered into for the redistribution of
the land set apart by the New Zealand Com-
pany for Cemetery purposes, and this redis-
tribution shall be based upon the appropri-
ation made in the year 1844, by direction of
Governor Fitzroy; and the partition of the
ground as then made and shown on the map
now produced, and signed by Major Rich-
mond and Mr Brees in 1844, shall be re-
tained—that is to say, the portions marked
Nos. 2 and 3 on the said map shall belong
and be granted to the Church of England
exclusively—the portion marked No. 4 shall
belong and be granted to the Jews—and
the portion marked No. 1, and another por-
tion having no number attached to it on the
said map, but being the residue of the Ce-
metery ground, shall belong and be granted
to Trustees, to be held for and on behalf of
the Public at large as a Public Cemetery:

Thirdly, That the Lord Bishop shall
further, out of consideration and respect for
the natural feelings and wishes of those par-
ties who, having relatives buried in portion
No. 2, may wish to be buried there them-
selves, consent, on behalf of the Church of
England, to bind himself and his succes-
sors in office to allow the interment, and to do no
act which would bar the interment, of par-
ties who are interested on the ground above
mentioned in that part of portion No. 2 in
which their relatives are buried; such inter-
ments to be conducted by the Ministers of
the denomination to which they respectively
belong, and with the usual services (being
Christian) which the discipline of their re-
spective Churches requires. This conces-
sion to extend, during a period of 30 years, to
those individuals only (and their relatives in
the degrees of affinity within which marriage
is prohibited) who, having their feelings
interested as aforesaid, shall have their
names inserted in a schedule to be attached
to a legal covenant to be entered into by the
Lord Bishop of New Zealand, for securing
to them the rights of sepulture, with minis-
tration of their own clergy as aforesaid, on
that part of portion No. 2 as above-mentioned.

Read over and assented to in the presence
of the Lieutenant-Governor and of the Ex-
ecutive Council, and in the presence of all
the parties named in the arrangement, this
22nd day of March, 1849.

(Signed) ... E. EYRE.
