A PROCLAMATION.

WHEREAS by "The Municipal Corporations
Act, 1876," it is enacted that the Council of
a borough constituted under that Act may take any
land within the borough for any of the purposes of
that Act in the manner provided by the Second Part
of "The Public Works Act, 1876" (hereinafter called
"the said Act"): And whereas the Council of the
Borough of Thames, requiring to take the land
described in the Schedule hereto for the purposes of
roads, has laid before me the memorials referred to
by section twenty-five of the said Act, praying me to
declare, by Proclamation, that the land described in
the Schedule hereto is taken for such purpose:

And whereas the Council of the said borough has,
in accordance with the twenty-eighth section of "The
Public Works Act 1876 Amendment Act, 1878,"
laid before me statutory declarations that the said
Council is authorized by law to undertake the work
for which the land described in the memorials laid
before me under section twenty-five of the said Act
is required, that all the provisions of the said Act as
to taking such land have been complied with, and that
the said Council is of opinion that the proposed
works should be executed, and that no private injury
will be done for which due compensation is not pro-
vided by the said Act:

And whereas it appears to me that all things
required by the said "Municipal Corporations Act,
1876," "The Public Works Act, 1876," and "The
Public Works Act 1876 Amendment Act, 1878," to
be done and performed to authorize the taking of
such land have been done and performed, and it is
expedient to declare that such land is taken for the
purpose aforesaid:

Now, therefore, I, James Prendergast, the Ad-
ministrator of the Government of the Colony of New
Zealand, by and with the advice of the Executive
Council of the said colony, in exercise and in pur-
suance of the powers and authorities in me vested
by the said Acts, and of any other power and
authority enabling me in that behalf, do hereby
proclaim and declare that the land described in the
Schedule hereto is taken by the Council of the said
borough for the purposes of roads; and that, from
and after the twenty-fourth day of August, one
thousand eight hundred and eighty-two, the said land
shall become vested in fee-simple in the Mayor,
Councillors, and Burgesses of the Borough of
Thames, discharged from all mortgages, charges,
claims, estates, and interests of what kind soever, for
the purposes of roads as aforesaid.
