NOTICE OF INTENTION TO CONSTRUCT A WATER-RACE.

To the Mining Registrar at Naseby, in the Mount
Ida Mining District, and all other persons whom
it may concern.

TAKE notice that it is intended to construct a
Water-race and divert water for purposes of
irrigation, commencing at a point in the Sowburn,
in the neighbourhood of the Township of Sowburn,
and terminating at a point on Section 8, Block XIII.,
Maniototo District.

The length of such race is seven miles or there-
abouts, and its intended course is south to north.
The mean depth of such race is 6 inches, and the
mean breadth 36 inches, and it is proposed to divert
four Government-heads of water; and we estimate
that four months will be required for its construc-
tion.

Dated this 10th day of April, 1879.
