appear to the satisfaction of any Highway

to be restricted, the Board may by notice
posted in the district or by advertisement
inserted at least twice in some newspaper

that all such vehicles will be subject to a
penalty of not less than one shilling per
hundred weight, or fractional part of a

weight of one ton five hundred weight
on two wheels, or two tons ten hundred

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 ascertain
ning the said weight.\n
And whereas it has been notified to
me, under the hand of the Chairman of
the Wanganui and Waitotara Highway

resolution, viz.: "That application should
be made to the Superintendent, to have

Now, therefore, I, William Fitzherbert,

appoint that clause 12 of "The Highways
Act, 1871, Amendment Act 1873," above
