By His Honor William Fitzherbert,
Esquire, C.M.G., Superintendent of the Province of Wellington, in the Colony of New
Zealand.

WHEREAS by clause 12 of the Act
of the Superintendent and Provincial Council, shortly intituled "The

1873," it is enacted that it shall be lawful
for the Superintendent to proclaim the
following clause to be in force in any
Highway District on receiving an application from the Board of Wardens of a
Highway District:—"Whenever it shall
appear to the satisfaction of any Highway Board that the weight carried on
vehicles having less than the breadth of their
wheels of less than five inches requires
to be restricted, the Board may, by
notice posted in the district, or by advertisement inserted at least twice in some
newspaper circulating in the district,
give notice that all such vehicles will be
subject to a penalty of not less than one
shilling per hundred weight, or fractional
part of a hundred weight so carried above
the weight of one ton five hundred weight
on two wheels, or two tons ten hundred
weight on four wheels, and that such
penalty shall be recoverable at the suit
of the collector or other agent appointed
for that purpose by the Board: Provided
for the carrying into operation of this
clause the Board shall be empowered to
take such steps as to them shall appear
necessary for ascertaining the weight of
any load, and no liability or damage shall
accrue for any necessary delay in ascertaining the said weight."

And whereas it has been notified to
me, under the hand of the Chairman of

1873, pass the following resolution, viz.:
"That the Chairman apply to the Superintendent, requesting him to proclaim clause
