CROWN TITLES.

Colonial Secretary's Office, Auckland,
30th April, 1852.

HIS Excellency the LIEUTENANT-GOVERNOR directs it to be notified that Grantees who have not availed themselves of the right of selection given by the Crown Titles Ordinance, Session 10, No. 4, within the time prescribed, who may be desirous of receiving amended Grants on the terms and conditions provided by the 11th clause of the said Ordinance, must make application in writing, addressed to the Colonial Secretary, on or before the first day of October, 1852.

His Excellency further directs it to be notified that, for the purpose of expediting the settlement of claims and to meet the convenience of Grantees, the necessary Survey may, in certain cases, be performed by the Grantee's own surveyor, and the selection made by the Commissioner at the suggestion of the Grantee.

For general information, a copy of the clause above alluded to is hereunto annexed.

"11. And be it further enacted, that, if such selection as aforesaid be not made by the Grantee, his Heirs, Appointees, or Assigns, before the said first day of July, 1851, it shall be lawful for the Governor or other the Officer administering the government of the Province for the time being, in the case of Deeds of Grant, wherein the land of which the Grantee is recited to be entitled to a grant forms a part only of the whole quantity claimed, and is not set forth or described by definite metes or bounds, to cause the particular piece or parcel of land, not exceeding the quantity to which such Grantee shall be recited to be entitled to, to be determined by such Commissioner as aforesaid, and to make a grant thereof to the Grantee named in such case as aforesaid, his Heirs or Assigns, on payment into the Colonial Treasury, by such Grantee, his Heirs or Assigns, of the costs, charges, and expenses incurred by the Commissioner in the discharge of such duty as aforesaid, and in causing the necessary surveys to be made of the land to be comprised in any such Grant. And the legal estate in such land, unless it be otherwise provided in such last-mentioned deed of Grant, shall be deemed to have been vested in such Grantee at the date of such first-mentioned Grant as aforesaid. Provided always that in case such payment shall not be made within twelve calendar months after it shall have been notified in the Government Gazette that such grant as aforesaid is ready for delivery, the land comprised therein shall thereupon become and be deemed and taken to be, to all intents and purposes, demesne lands of the Crown."
