   the purport of the same has been made public in the
   locality whose interests are affected, by advertisement
   in a local newspaper, at least four times in four suc-
   cessive weeks. When the Bill specially affects the
   interests of any private individual, evidence shall
   also be produced that personal notice to the effect
   above stated has been given to such individual.

   other dealing with any Crown lands, or with a public
   reserve, the member in charge thereof shall also pro-
   duce a certified map, on a scale of not less than 20
   chains to an inch, showing the land or reserve in
   question, and the mode in which it is proposed to

for the land order under which any such persons have
been found to be entitled, together with compensation
to the amount of one pound for every one pound
sterling represented by such land order added there-
to; so that every person found entitled shall receive
two pounds in value for every twenty shillings in
value to which he shall have been found entitled,
except in cases of lost land orders, in which case
proceedings must be taken under "The Lost Land
Orders Act, 1861."

No scrip can be delivered by the Commissioner
until the land order in satisfaction of which such
scrip is issued has been cancelled by him.

Upon the receipt of scrip all the right, title, inter-
est, claim, and demand of the person to whom the
same is issued, and of all other persons whatsoever,
to the land in respect of which scrip shall have been
issued, is extinguished. And the issue of such scrip
is, both at law and in equity, a full and complete
performance by the Crown, on behalf of the New
Zealand Company, of the contract or obligation of
the Company in respect of which such scrip shall
have been issued.

All such scrip to be issued under the authority of
the said Act is transferable, and is receivable as cash
by the Receiver of Land Revenue in or towards the
purchase of waste lands of the Crown in any part of
the Provincial District of Wellington, but not else-
where, and must be exercised within five years from
the date of its issue. Claims for the exercise of scrip
not made within such period of five years are barred.

The Commissioner cannot entertain or investigate
any claims in which the claimant shall not have noti-
fied his intention to have his claim heard and decided
under the provisions of the said Act, within the time
limited for making such application. All claimants
failing to avail themselves of the provisions of the
said Act are barred, and their claim extinguished by
reason of such default.

Claimants not resident within the Colony of New
Zealand should forthwith appoint a duly-authorized
agent to do and perform whatever may be requisite
to obtain the benefit of the said Act.

Dated at Wellington, this fourth day of January,
1878.

DAVID LEWIS,
A Commissioner for the purposes of the
above-referred-to Act.
