PROCLAMATION.
By the Honorable JOHN PARKIN TAYLOR, Esquire, Superintendent of the Province of Southland.
WHEREAS by an Act of the General Assembly of New Zealand entitled the “Superintendent’s Deputy Act, 1856,” it is among other things enacted that it shall be lawful for the Superintendent of any Province to appoint such person as he may think fit, being a registered Elector in such Province, to be his deputy, and as such to perform and exercise all the acts and powers (except such powers as are conferred by the Constitution Act 15 and 16 Vic., c. 72), which may be exercised and performed by such Superintendent: and the acts of such Deputy Superintendent, so far as authorised by such Proclamation, shall be effectual in all respects as if performed by the Superintendent himself.
And, whereas, I am about to be absent from the Province, and it is therefore necessary that I should appoint a registered Elector to be my Deputy Superintendent, to act during my absence as provided by the said Act;
Now, therefore, I, the said Superintendent, do hereby proclaim and declare that I have appointed
WILLIAM HUGH NURSE, Esquire,
a registered Elector of the Province of Southland to be my Deputy, and as such to perform and exercise during my absence from the Province all the acts and powers (except such powers as are conferred by the Constitution Act 15 and 16 Vic., c. 72, or by delegation from His Excellency the Governor of New Zealand), which may be exercised or performed by me.
Given under my hand, and issued under the Public Seal of the Province of Southland, this twenty-second day of July, One thousand eight hundred and sixty-five.
JNO. P. TAYLOR,
Superintendent
Of the Province of Southland.
