    by the high watermark of the South Pacific Ocean.
    On the Eastward, partly by a straight line, bearing
    155° 53′, drawn from the aforesaid high watermark
    in the direction of Domett Street, to the North-east
    corner of the Municipal Reserve; thence by Domett

Wherefore your Petitioners humbly pray that
your Excellency will be pleased to declare
the Town of Westport under the pro-
visions of "The Municipal Corporations
Act, 1867."
