HIS EXCELLENCY THE GOVERNOR IN COUNCIL.
WHEREAS by "The Maori Real Estate Manage-
ment Act, 1867" (hereinafter called "the said
Act"), it is enacted that, if any title to or interest in
any hereditaments shall accrue to any Maoris, who
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 owner-
ship bearing date the tenth day of May, one thousand
eight hundred and seventy seven, the parcel of land

And whereas at a sitting of the Native Land Court

ordered by the said Court that Ropata te Monika,

Puoho in the hereditaments aforesaid; and it is
expedient that Hone Hehe be appointed trustee
under the said Act, on behalf of the said Ropata
te Monika (a minor, eleven and a half years old):

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 interest
and share of the said Ropata te Monika in the

as Trustee, within the meaning and for the purposes
of the said Act, for the said Ropata te Monika
during his minority.
