The total area of Lot 1214 was 29,073 sq. m. On 27 November 1931she donated to the then Municipality of Iloilo, 9,000 sq. m. of Lot 1214, to serve as site for the municipal hall. The donation was however revoked by the parties for the reason that the area donated was found inadequate to meet the requirements of the development plan of the municipal ity, the so-called “Arellano Plan.”  Subsequently , Lot 1214 was divided by Certeza Surveying Co., Inc. into Lots 1214-A and 1214-B. And still later, Lot 1214-B was further divided into Lots 1214-B-1, Lot 1214-B-2 and Lot1214-B-3. As approved by the Bureau of Lands, Lot 1214- B-1, with 4,562 sq. m., became known as Lot 1214-B; Lot 1214-B-2,with 6,653 sq. m., was designated as Lot 121 4-C; and Lot 1214-B-3, with 4,135 sq. m., became Lot 1214-D. On 15 November1932, Juliana Melliza executed an instrument without any caption providing for the absolute sale involving all of lot 5, 7669 sq.m. of Lot 2 (sublots 2-B and 2-C), and a portion of 10,788 sq. m. of Lot 1214 (sublots 1214-B2 and 1214-B3) in favor of the Municipal Governmen t of Iloilo for the sum of P6,422; these lots and portions being the ones needed by the municipal government for the construction of avenues, parks and City hall site according the “Arellano plan.” On 14 January 1938, Melliza sold her remaining interest in Lot 1214 to Remedios Sian Villanueva (therea fter TCT 18178). Remedios in turn on 4 November1946 transferred her rights to said portion of land to Pio Sian Melliza (thereafter TCT 2492). Annotated at the back of Pio Sian Mellizas title certificat e was the following “that a portion of 10,788 sq. m. of Lot 1214 now designated as Lots 1412-B-2 and1214-B-3 of the subdivision plan belongs to the Municipality of Iloilo as per instrument dated 15 November 1932.” On 24 August 1949 the City of Iloilo, which succeeded to the Municipality of Iloilo, donated the city hall site together with the building thereon, to the University of the P hilippines (Iloilo branch) . The site donated consisted of Lots 1214-B, 1214-C and 1214-D, with a total area of 15,350 sq. m., more or less. Sometime in 1952, the University of the Philippines enclosed the site donated with a wire fence. Pio Sian Melliza thereupon made representations, thru his lawyer, with the city authorities for payment of the value of the lot (Lot 1214-B). No recovery was obtained, because as alleged by Pio Sian Melliza, the City did not have funds. The University of the Philippines, meanwhile, obtained Transfer Certificat e of Title No. 7152 covering the three lots, Nos. 1214-B,1214-C and 1214-D.On 10 December 1955 Pio Sian Melizza filed an action in the CFI Iloilo against Iloilo City
