WHEREAS it is expedient that part of the district of Whanganui should be constituted a Hundred. Now therefore I, the Governor of the Province of New Munster, do hereby proclaim and declare that so much of the district of Whanganui, in the Province of New Munster, as is included within the boundaries hereinafter particularly set forth and described on a map or plan deposited in the office of the Commissioner of Crown Lands for the district of Wellington, shall be constituted a Hundred, to be called the Hundred of Whanganui.

Description of the Boundaries.

The South Eastern boundary commences at high water mark at Motukaraka, or Wilson’s Bluff, and proceeds thence on a bearing of N. 26deg. E. to the commencement of the “Eastern Line” at the South Eastern angle of section No. 108.

The Eastern boundary thence proceeds Northward along the “Eastern Line” to the point at which that line intersects Bell’s Creek: where the North Eastern boundary commences, and follows the course of that Creek to the point at which it is intersected by “Number Three Line;” thence along that line Northward to the point at which it intersects the Southern branch of the Meteongamanga Creek; thence following the course of that Creek to its confluence with the Whanganui River.

The Eastern boundary then continues Northward up the stream of the Whanganui to the point at which the “Missionary Line” strikes the River.

The Northern boundary thence proceeds Westward along the Missionary Line to its termination at the South Western angle of section No. 71, thence on a bearing of S. 68 deg. W. to the point at which the Middle Line intersects the Mangauria River, and thence follows the course of that River to its confluence with the Mowhanan River.

The Western boundary then commences at that confluence and follows the course of the Mowhanan River to the point at which it is intersected by the boundary line of the Whanganui block, and proceeds along that line to highwater mark on the shore. The South Western boundary then commences, and proceeds in a South Easterly direction along the shore at high water mark to Wilson’s Bluff as hereinbefore described.

Given under my hand, and issued under the public seal of the Province of New Munster, in the Islands of New Zealand, at Government House, at Wellington, this seventeenth day of September, in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and fifty-one.
