Pequilla and which lot has an aggregate land area of 183 square meters. The corresponding boundaries were likewise indicated in said tax declaration.

EXHIBIT 2[2] --- Sketch Plan of Lot No. 1434

2-A--- Portion highlighted with a yellow mark which is the area enclosed by a fence.

2-B--- Portion highlighted with a red/pink mark which is the area used by the plaintiffs as passage.

PURPOSE:

As part of the testimony of Margie Pequilla and formally offered to prove that there is actually no encroachment committed by the defendants over Lot No. 1262 or over any other lots surrounding Lot No. 1434. The portion highlighted with a yellow mark would prove that a portion of Lot No. 1434 was enclosed with a fence which spans from the window of the house of herein defendant Demosthenes Pequilla up to a point midway between the boundary of Lot No. 1262 and Lot No. 1434. Said fence is well within the boundary of Lot No. 1434. From the point where the fence is located and up to the boundary between Lot No. 1262 and Lot No. 1434 lies the passageway used by the plaintiffs. Such passageway is still part of Lot No. 1434. The portion highlighted with a pink/red mark would readily show such passageway. Point No. 7 on the sketch plan would prove that the boundary or cylindrical post was located at such point.
