same, it is, amongst other things, enacted that the
Governor, from time to time, by Proclamation
published in the New Zealand Gazette, may, as
to parts within the North Island of New Zealand,
define the roads and the boundaries thereof, and
the bridges and ferries, which shall be and be
deemed to be roads, bridges, or ferries, as the case
may be, under the provisions of the said Act, and
any such Proclamation may include existing roads,
but no such roads or parts of roads shall be included
if they are, in the opinion of the Governor in Council,
roads which should be constructed by the Superin-
tendent and the Provincial Council of the province
wherein such roads are situated, as well as new road
lines; and the Governor from time to time may
revoke or alter any such Proclamation: And
whereas it is expedient that the road mentioned
and defined in the Schedule hereto should be con-
structed under the above in part recited Acts: And
whereas, in the opinion of the Governor of the
Colony of New Zealand, and the Executive Council
of New Zealand, the said road is not a road which
should be constructed by the Superintendent and
Provincial Council of the Province of Taranaki:
Now therefore, I, George Augustus Constantine,
Marquis of Normanby, the Governor of the Colony
of New Zealand, in exercise and pursuance of the
power and authority in me vested by the said Acts,
and of every other power and authority enabling me
in that behalf, do hereby proclaim and declare that
the road within the Province of Taranaki described,
and the boundaries whereof are set forth in the
Schedule hereto, shall be and be deemed to be a road
under the provisions of the said in part recited Acts;
and in further pursuance of "The Immigration and
Public Works Act, 1870," and the Acts amending the
same, I do hereby proclaim and declare that I have
caused a map and survey plan, marked T. 223, of the
road defined in the Schedule hereto, and describing
the course and bearings and the admeasurements
required for the same, and through what lands the
same is proposed to pass, and the names of the owners
or occupiers thereof, so far as known, to be de-
posited in the office of the Public Works Department
at New Plymouth, in the Province of Taranaki;
which said map and survey plan is authenticated,
for the purposes of this Proclamation, by the sig-
nature of the Honorable Edward Richardson, Minister
for Public Works.

Works Act, 1872," it is, among other things,
enacted, that whenever it shall become necessary
that any lands which the Governor or the Minister
is, by or under the Acts therein mentioned, or any
Act authorizing the construction of any railway by
the Governor or Minister, authorized to purchase or
take for such railway, or any portion thereof on or
over which a railway authorized by the said Acts, or
any Act to be passed in pursuance thereof, has been
or may hereafter be constructed, should be vested in
Her Majesty the Queen, it shall be lawful for the
Governor or the Minister to cause a map of all such
lands as may have been taken or purchased under
the said Acts, or any Act authorizing the construc-
tion of any railway as aforesaid, or any portion of
such railway, to be prepared. Such map shall fully
and accurately set forth the pieces or parcels of land
intended to be taken and permanently used, or
which have been purchased or taken, or are required
to be vested in Her Majesty for the purposes of any
such railway, and shall be authenticated by the sig-
nature of the Minister, or by that of some person to
be appointed by him for that purpose from time to
time. And it is also enacted that the Minister shall
cause the map to be deposited in the office of the
Registrar of Deeds for the Registration District
within which the lands shall be situated, or if the
lands set forth on any such map shall extend beyond
the boundaries of any one district, then such map
shall be prepared in so many parts as shall be
requisite to delineate the lands within each such
district, and the map or the parts thereof as afore-
said shall be deposited in the office of the Registrar
of Deeds in each Registration District where the
lands shall be situated to which such map relates;
but for the purposes of the said Act, such map,
although consisting of several parts, shall only be
deemed to be one map: And whereas by the said
Act it is further enacted, that it shall thereupon be
lawful for the Governor from time to time, by Pro-
clamation in the New Zealand Gazette, to declare
that the lands set forth in such map, or any of them,
have been taken or required for the purposes of the
railway in respect of which the same shall have been
taken or acquired under the said Acts, or any Act
authorizing the same to be taken or acquired, and in
such Proclamation the lands intended to be affected
shall be therein described by reference to such map
so to be deposited as aforesaid: And whereas, in
