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 "The Maori Real Estate Management Act Amendment Act, 1877," it is provided

Now, therefore, His Excellency the Governor of New Zealand, with the advice and consent of the
Executive Council of the colony, in exercise and pursuance of the powers and authorities vested in him by
the said Acts, doth hereby order that the interests and shares of the persons under disability named in
the Schedule hereto in the several blocks of land referred to therein shall be and remain vested in the
several persons named in the third column thereof as trustees within the meaning and for the purposes
of the said Acts for the said persons respectively during the term or terms of their minority or other
