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
