PROCLAMATION.

By His Excellency ROBERT FITZROY,
Esquire, Captain in Her Majesty's Royal
Navy, and Governor and Commander-in-
Chief in and over Her Majesty's Colony
of New Zealand and its Dependencies,
and Vice Admiral of the same, &c.
&c., &c.

ALL Natives of the Bay of Islands, or its
neighborhood, who are desirous of peace,
commerce, and friendship with Europeans;—
and the maintenance of the Queen's just
authority;—while benefitting by Her Majesty's
protection—are hereby called on and required
to separate themselves in a few days from the
ill disposed Natives—and to gather round
their own Chiefs—under the British Flag—
either at their own places:—or round the Mis-
sion Stations,—which will be secure places of
resort.

During the continuance of War—no Natives
may approach the Ships—or Soldiers—or en-
campment at the Bay of Islands—wherever
placed—without having a Missionary—or a
Protector—with a white flag with them lest
the Soldiers should mistake friends for enemies—
and fire upon them in error.

All Boats, and other property, taken away
from Kororareka by plunderers must be forth-
with given up to persons duly authorised to
receive the same.

Given under my Hand, and issued
under the Public Seal of the
Colony, at Government House,
(L. S.) Auckland, this twenty-sixth day
of April, in the year of Our Lord
One thousand eight hundred and
forty five.

ROBERT FITZ ROY,
Governor.

By Command,
ANDREW SINCLAIR,
Colonial Secretary.
