Appeal from the District Court of the Fifteenth District, City and County of San Francisco. The case is stated in the opinion.

1Opinion of the CourtCbockett, J.

The only question for our decision on this appeal is, whether or not the demurrer to the answer was properly sustained. The land in contest is a strip about twelve feet wide and four hundred and six feet eight inches long, which the defendants in their answer aver to be a part of Howard street, in the City of Petaluma. The plaintiff claims that it is a portion of a larger parcel, which for many years prior to the 1st day of March, 1867, and up to the month of May, 1867, was in the actual, exclusive and bona fide occupation of J. B.
