† Section 549 will be sold subject to a site for a Rifle Range, with the
right of entry thereto.

Terms of Payment.
One-fourth of the purchase money in cash on the
fall of the hammer; the remainder at or before the
expiration of three calendar months from the day of

sale, to be paid at the office of the Officer in Charge
of Confiscated Lands, Patea. By clause 18 of the
Confiscated Land Regulations, in the event of the
second payment not being made as aforesaid, the sale
will be void and the deposit forfeited.

The Rural Sections in the Patea District include
portion of the Railway Reserve, which is a strip of
country situated in the heart of the settlement, ex-
tending from Patea to Waingongoro and Ketemarae.
The reserve is traversed by an excellent metalled
road, and bridges have been erected or are in course
of construction, where necessary, on the whole line
from Wanganui to New Plymouth. The surveyed
line of railway runs parallel with and in some places
through the reserve.
The settlement of the district has progressed
rapidly during the last few months, and the sections
now offered comprise nearly all available lands at
the disposal of Government between the edge of the
bush and the sea coast.

A few Bush Sections are also offered for sale,
affording an opportunity to settlers in the open lands
to obtain timber for fencing and other purposes.
Plans may be inspected at the office of the
Secretary for Crown Lands, Wellington, and at the
Survey Office, Patea.
All required information may be obtained at this
office.
