colony, doth hereby fix the following amended terms
and conditions as those upon which the undisposed
portions of the special-settlement block shall be dis-
posed of, and the mode of payment for the same, that
is to say,—

1. These amended terms shall be read and con-
   strued together with and be deemed to form part of
   the original terms and conditions above mentioned,
   and all such former terms and conditions as are
   repugnant hereto are hereby repealed.

2. The Governor shall retain absolutely the sum
   of three thousand pounds sterling deposited by the
   selector as aforesaid, and shall apply the same in
   manner hereinafter mentioned, in reduction of the
   sum of eleven thousand three hundred and fifteen
   pounds, the total balance of purchase-money now
   owing by the selector in respect of the fifteen
   thousand acres chosen by him; and the balance
   thereafter remaining due, and amounting to eight
   thousand three hundred and fifteen pounds, shall be
   paid by the selector on or before the first day of
   January, one thousand eight hundred and eighty-six.

3. The portions of the special-settlement block now
   remaining undisposed of, and consisting of eight
   thousand six hundred and twelve acres, shall be
   sold at the same price per acre as is fixed in the
   original terms and conditions above mentioned, that
   is to say, at the rate of twenty-six shillings and three-
   pence per acre, of which sums respectively the selector
   shall pay in cash nineteen shillings and threepence
   per acre, and shall be credited as against the afore-
   said sum of three thousand pounds with the sum of
   seven shillings for each acre in respect whereof he
   shall pay cash as last aforesaid.

4. Provided that, if at any time before the said

5. The undisposed lands aforesaid may be disposed
   of in the colony or outside thereof, for which pur-

   as the Agent-General to countersign land orders and
   to receive payments from the selector for land sold
   by him whether within or outside of the colony.

   within three years from the date of making his
   selection have made substantial improvements of a
   permanent character in the land selected by him to
   the value of at least ten shillings for every acre of
   such land. The said improvements to be as the same
   are defined in section thirty-three of "The Land
   Act 1877 Amendment Act, 1882."

   amended terms in the same manner as if he had
   bought such land under the aforesaid original terms
   and conditions.

And the conditions contained in the said Order in
Council in relation to the selector shall apply also in
such relation as if the said conditions were respectively
reinserted herein.

10. In case of the breach by the selector of any of

    selector may be liable to in respect of any breach
    of conditions under the said original terms and
    conditions.

Trustees under Maori Real Estate Management Acts, 1867 and 1877 appointed.

WM. F. DRUMMOND JERVOIS, Governor.

ORDER IN COUNCIL.

At the Government House, at Wellington, this second day of April, 1883.

Present:

HIS EXCELLENCY THE GOVERNOR 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 Governor of the Colony of New Zealand, with the advice and consent of the Executive
Council of the said 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 block 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 parcel 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.
