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 here-
ditaments, or any part thereof or interest therein, as
shall to the Governor in Council be shown to belong
to such infant, or 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 memorial of ownership
bearing date the first day of March, one thou-
sand eight hundred and seventy-six, the parcel
of land and hereditaments described in the
Schedule hereto became vested in Paora te Riri
and others, of the District of Hawke's Bay, in

And whereas at a sitting of the Native Land Court

to the interest and share of the said Paora te Riri
in the hereditaments aforesaid :
