(L.S.) HERCULES ROBINSON, Governor.

A PROCLAMATION.

WHEREAS by "The Licensing Act, 1873," it
is, amongst other things, enacted that the
Governor shall, as soon as conveniently may be after
the passing of the said Act, by Proclamation in the
Government Gazette, define such territorial divisions
as he may think proper to be licensing districts for
the purposes of the said Act, and from time to time
may alter and redefine the boundaries of the same:

And whereas by a Proclamation bearing date the
twenty-third day of February, one thousand eight
hundred and seventy-four, the District of Foxton
was constituted under the said "Licensing Act,
1873:" And whereas it is expedient to abolish the
said district, and define other districts in lieu thereof:

Now, therefore, I, Hercules George Robert Robin-
son, the Governor of the Colony of New Zealand,
in pursuance of the provisions of the hereinbefore
recited Act, and of every power and authority
enabling me in this behalf, do hereby abolish the
said District of Foxton, and do proclaim, constitute,
and appoint that the territorial divisions the boun-
daries whereof are defined and set forth in the
Schedule hereto shall be licensing districts for the
purposes of the said Act; and that such districts
shall be known by the names by which they are
designated in the said Schedule.

And I do further proclaim and declare that three
members of the Licensing Court constituted for each
such district, inclusive of the Chairman, shall form a
quorum thereof.
