Tuesday in the month of September, for the purpose
of choosing a Chairman and settling a rota of

WHEREAS by "The Diseased Cattle Act, 1871,"
it is, amongst other things, enacted that the
Governor, by Proclamation to be published in the

lish and define such and so many districts as he shall
think fit to be districts under the said Act, and to

do hereby define all that tract of country comprising

the powers conferred upon me by the said Act, I do
