DANIEL POLLEN.

TO HIS EXCELLENCY THE GOVERNOR OF NEW ZEA-
LAND.
The Petition of the undersigned Inhabitant
Householders, resident within the Town of
Akaroa, in the Province of Canterbury.
HUMBLY SHOWETH:
THAT the said Town of Akaroa was proclaimed a
town on the first day of May, one thousand eight
hundred and fifty-six, which Proclamation was
gazetted in the Canterbury Provincial Government
Gazette, of the twelfth day of May, in the same
year.
That the said town is situated and bounded as
follows, that is to say, situated on the east side of
the Harbour of Akaroa, and shall be bounded by a
line commencing at a point where the northern
branch of the Mill Stream falls into the sea; con-
tinued easterly along the northern branch of the said
stream to the first fork; thence in a straight line
southerly to the trigonometrical pole marked "A"
on the hill; thence in the same direction to the point
where the Balqueri Road meets the eastern boundary
of Watson Street; thence along the eastern side of
the said street to where it crosses the eastern boun-
dary of Le Lievre's land; thence southerly along the
said eastern boundary and along the boundary of
Malmanche's land to the Rue Charbonnier; thence
across the Rue Charbonnier and onwards southerly
in the same direct line as the eastern boundary of
Malmanche's land to Aylmer Street; thence westerly
along the southern side of that street to its junction
with South Street; thence along the eastern side of
the last-named street till it meets a line in con-
tinuation of the north-east side of the Abattoir
Reserve; thence north-westerly along the said line
and the north-eastern boundary of the Abattoir
Reserve to low watermark; thence along low water-
mark to the commencing point; which said boundary
line of the said town is marked in a red dotted line
on the map of the Town and Suburbs of Akaroa,
signed by the Chief Surveyor, and marked "A3,"
and deposited in the Land Office at Christchurch.
And your Petitioners pray that the Town of
Akaroa, as above described and bounded, may be
proclaimed a borough under "The Municipal Cor-
porations Act, 1867."
And that your Excellency will be pleased to endow
the said borough with such property and in such
manner as to your Excellency shall seem most
advisable.
And your Petitioners will ever pray.
