BYE-LAWS, Mokareta Hundred, agreed to 11th August, 1873:

No person shall bring any cattle to the Mokareta Hundred to be depastured thereon, nor shall any person remove therefrom any cattle depasturing thereon without giving at least one day’s notice of his intention so to do to a Warden; but this bye-law shall not apply to persons driving cattle through the Hundred unless such cattle shall have continued upon the Hundred for a longer period than twenty-four hours.

2. No person shall disturb or harass cattle lawfully depasturing upon the Hundred, provided always that any person holding a licence to depasture cattle within the Hundred, or any person duly authorised by him, may drive such cattle for the purpose of collecting such as may belong to him, and for the legitimate use of his right of pasturage within the Hundred, but in case it should be necessary for such purpose to drive any cattle belonging to any other person a greater distance than half a mile, the person so driving such cattle must separate his own cattle from those of other persons and return the latter to the place from whence they were driven.

3. Every person offending against any of the foregoing bye-laws shall forfeit any sum not exceeding five pounds for every such offence.
