viz.:

wetú, thence along the western bank of the said Waiwetú River to the Harbour.
West—The Hutt River from the point where the Northern boundary line of Section number 21 crosses it—thence Southward along the said Hutt River as far as the branch running between Sections numbers 9 and 10, thence along such branch and the River running between Sections numbers 10 and 11 to the Harbour.
Excepting, however, out of such District so much of Section number 13 as may be required to form and repair an approach to the Bridge about to be built over the Waiwetú River.
