IN pursuance and exercise of the power and
authority for this purpose vested in me by

vice and consent of the Executive Council of
the said Colony, do hereby proclaim and de-
clare that all Cattle and parts of Cattle are
from and after the date hereof prohibited from
being imported into the Colony, unless and
until the person desirous of importing any
Cattle or parts of Cattle shall procure and pro-
duce to the Chief Officer of Customs of the
Port at which the same are to be imported a
certificate under the hand of some person to
be appointed and authorised in this behalf by
the Commissioner of Customs or by a Super-
intendent for any Port within the Province of
which he is Superintendent to the effect that
he has examined such Cattle or parts of Cattle
and that they are respectively clean and free
from the disease called Pleuro Pneumonia, or
from any infectious or contagious distemper
or disease.
