2/18/22, 2:27 PM SUPREME COURT REPORTS ANNOTATED VOLUME 005
"It is admitted by the parties that the land involved in this action
was formed by the gradual deposit of alluvium brought about by
the action of the Cagayan River, a navigable river. We are
inclined to believe that the accretion was formed on the
northeastern side of the land covered by Original Certificate of
Titie No. 2982 after the survey of the registered land in 1931,
because the surveyors found out that the northeastern boundary
of the land surveyed by them was the Cagayan River, and not the
land in question. Which is indicative of the fact that the accretion
has not yet started or begun in 1931. And, as declared by Pedro
Laman, defendants' witness and the boundary owner on the
northwest of the registered land of the plaintiffs, the accretion
was a little more than one hectare, including the stony portion, in
1940 or 1941. Therefore, the declarations of the defendant
Domingo Calalung and his witness, Vicente C. Bacani, to the
effect that the land in question was formed by accretion since
1933 do not only contradict
