of "The Land Act, 1892," it is enacted that the
Governor in Council may fix the terms and conditions upon

day of August, one thousand eight hundred and ninety-three,
and published in the New Zealand Gazette on the tenth day
of August, one thousand eight hundred and ninety-three,
the lands described in the First Schedule hereto have been
set apart under the said Act and declared open for lease as a
village settlement, and it is expedient to fix the terms and
conditions upon which the said lands shall be disposed of :

Now, therefore, His Excellency the Governor of the Colony
of New Zealand, in pursuance and exercise of the powers
and authorities conferred by the said Act, and by and with
the advice and consent of the Executive Council of the said
colony, doth hereby fix the terms and conditions on which
the lands mentioned in the First Schedule hereto shall be

ALLOTMENTS.

must go there for shipment, the lots are likely to become
of considerable value as time goes on.
