At the Government House, at Wellington, this eleventh day of October, 1881.

Present :
HIS EXCELLENCY THE ADMINISTRATOR OF THE GOVERNMENT IN COUNCIL.

WHEREAS by "The Maori Real Estate Management 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 hereditaments, 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 "The Maori Real Estate Management Act Amendment Act, 1877," it is provided
that in all cases in which no trustee of such estate of any infant Maori prior to the passing of the said
last-recited Act has been appointed, the Governor may appoint such trustee only on the recommendation
of a Judge of the Native Land Court :
And whereas in pursuance of orders bearing dates as contained in the first column of the Schedule
hereto, made by the Judges named in the second column thereof, the persons named in the third column
were recommended to the Governor as trustees under the said Acts on behalf of the persons named and
under the disability described in the fourth column, in respect of the lands described or referred to in the
fifth column :
Now, therefore, His Excellency the Administrator of the Government of New Zealand, with the advice
and consent of the Executive Council of the colony, in exercise and pursuance of the powers and authori-
ties 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 disability; the said parcels of land having the areas and boundaries set forth in the Crown grants,
certificates of title, and memorials of ownership affecting the same, and in the record maps in the office of
the Surveyor-General.
