enacted that the Governor in Council may from
time to time, by Proclamation published in the New

vided or deemed suitable for the reception of Lunatics,
and wholly or in part supported out of any money
appropriated for the purpose by the General Assembly,
or wholly or in part supported by or at the cost of
any Province or County or other division of the
Colony, a Public Asylum within the meaning of the
said Act:

And whereas by Order in Council dated the 12th
day of February, 1873, His Excellency Sir George
Furguson Bowen, the then Governor of New Zealand,
with the advice and consent of the Executive Council
of the said Colony, in pursuance and in exercise of
the power and authority for that purpose vested in
him, did order and direct that all the powers, functions,
duties, and authorities vested in or required to be
performed by the Governor, or the Governor in Coun-
cil, or the Colonial Secretary, by the aforesaid Act,
within the Province of Wellington, shall be exercised
by the Superintendent of such Province:

Now therefore, I, William Fitzherbert, Superin-
tendent of the Province of Wellington, do hereby
proclaim the building known as "The Wellington
Lunatic Asylum," situated in the Province of Wel-
lington, and erected upon a portion of the Wellington
Town Belt, being a house or building provided and
deemed suitable for the reception of Lunatics, and
wholly or in part supported at the cost of the Province
of Wellington, to be a Public Asylum within the
meaning of "The Lunatics Act, 1868."

Given under my hand and issued under the Public
Seal of the Province of Wellington, at Wel-
(P.S.) lington, this twenty-second day of May, one
thousand eight hundred and seventy-three.

WILLIAM FITZHERBERT,
