MAKASIAR, J p:

This is an appeal from the decision dated January 5, 1966 of the then Court of First Instance of Manila, Branch II, in Civil Case No. 59859, which dismissed plaintiffs-appellants' complaint for partition or recovery of hereditary share, fruits and damages.

Plaintiffs-appellants, in their complaint filed on February 12, 1965, alleged that the late Raymundo Bañas, their predecessor-in-interest, was the acknowledged natural son of the late Bibiano Bañas, defendants-appellees' predecessor-in-interest; that therefore, they are, by descent, entitled to a share in the estate of the late Bibiano Bañas.
