VILLAMOR, J : p
It appears from the record that the widow of Tan Toco had sued the
municipal council of Iloilo for the amount of P42,966.40, being the purchase
price of two strips of land, one on Calle J. M. Basa consisting of 592 square
meters, and the other on Calle Aldiguer consisting of 59 square meters,
which the municipality of Iloilo had appropriated for widening said street.
The Court of First Instance of Iloilo sentenced the said municipality to pay
the plaintiff the amount so claimed, plus the interest, and the said judgment
was on appeal affirmed by this court.
