Present:
His EXCELLENCY THE GOVERNOR IN COUNCIL.
WHEREAS by "The Maori Real Estate Manage-
ment Act, 1867," it is enacted, that if any
title to or interest in any hereditaments shall accrue
to any Maoris, who or any of whom shall be infants,
lunatics, or under legal disability, it shall be lawful
for the Governor in Council, if he think fit, to order
that such hereditaments, or any part thereof or
interest therein as shall to the Governor in Council
be shown to belong to such infant, lunatic, or other
person under legal disability, shall be vested in
trustees, as the Governor in Council shall think fit:
And whereas, by virtue of a Crown grant bearing date
the eighth day of October, one thousand eight hundred
and seventy-two, the parcel of land and hereditaments
described in the Schedule hereto became vested in
Te Numana, of the District of Taranaki, in the Pro-
vince of Taranaki, an aboriginal native of New Zea-
land: And whereas the said Te Numana died in-
testate: And whereas at a sitting of the Native Land
Court, held at New Plymouth, in the province afore-
said, on the twenty-first day of October, one thousand
eight hundred and seventy-five, Ihaka Turoro claimed
to succeed to the interest of the said Te Numana, in
the said parcel of land described in the said Schedule;
and it was ordered by the said Court that Emiri,
an infant under the age of twenty-one years, should
succeed to the hereditaments aforesaid; and it is
expedient that Charles Brown, Esquire, Civil Com-
missioner, and Ihaka Turoro be appointed trustees
under the said Act on behalf of the said Emiri
during her minority:
Now, therefore, His Excellency the Governor of
New Zealand, with the advice and consent of the
Executive Council of the Colony, in exercise and in
pursuance of the powers and authorities vested in
him by the said Act, doth hereby order that the land
described in the Schedule hereto shall be and remain
vested in
CHARLES BROWN, Esq., Civil Commissioner, and
IHAKA TURORO, of Taranaki, in the District
of Taranaki, in the said province, an aboriginal
native of New Zealand,
as Trustees within the meaning and for the purposes
of the said Act for the said Emiri during her
minority.

Altering place of Sittings of District Court at
Waimate.
NORMANBY, Governor.
WHEREAS by the one hundred and fifty-fifth
section of "The District Courts Act, 1858,"
it is enacted that it shall be lawful for the Governor
from time to time, by notification in the New Zealand
Gazette, to fix the times and places within the
district at which every District Court shall be held,
and in like manner such times and places to alter or
abolish as he shall think fit:
And whereas, by a Warrant dated the fifteenth
day of October, one thousand eight hundred and
seventy-four, the Governor appointed that sittings of
the District Court of the Timaru and Oamaru Dis-
trict should be held at Waimate, at the Resident
Magistrate's Court House, for the despatch of civil
and criminal business, on the seventeenth day of the
months of January, March, May, July, September,
and November respectively, in every year:
And whereas it is expedient that in future the
sittings of the said District Court should be held at
the Temperance Hall at Waimate, instead of at the
said Resident Magistrate's Court House:
Now, therefore, I, George Augustus Constantine,
Marquis of Normanby, the Governor of the Colony
of New Zealand, do hereby declare and appoint that,
notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
in the said in part recited Warrant, the sitting of the
said District Court shall in future be held at the
Temperance Hall at Waimate, in lieu of at the Resi-
dent Magistrate's Court House at Waimate afore-
said.
As witness the hand of His Excellency the
Governor, this second day of May,
one thousand eight hundred and seventy-
six.
