that it shall be lawful for the Governor, by Proclama-
tion in the New Zealand Gazette, at any time to

bearing date the second day of February, one thousand
eight hundred and sixty-eight, the limit of jurisdiction
of the Resident Magistrate's Court hereinafter men-
tioned was extended to one hundred pounds: And
whereas it is expedient to abolish the extended juris-
diction given to the said Court by the said Proclama-
tion, and to declare that the limit of jurisdiction of
the said Court shall be extended to fifty pounds:

Now, therefore, I, James Prendergast, the Admin-
istrator of the Government of the Colony of New
Zealand, do hereby, in pursuance of the power and
authority vested in me by the said Act, proclaim and
declare that, on and after the first day of October
next, the extended jurisdiction so given as aforesaid
to the Resident Magistrate's Court for

THE OKARITO DISTRICT

shall be abolished, and that, from and after the said
first day of October, the jurisdiction of the said
Court shall be extended to fifty pounds.

James Prendergast, Chief Justice, the
Administrator of the Government of Her
Majesty's Colony of New Zealand; and
