Curgenven, J.

1. The appeal is by the defendants (except the 7th) against the decree of the Subordinate Judge of Chittoor declaring the plaintiffs title to the plots marked J and P in the plaintiffs plan and directing formal delivery coupled with an injunction restraining the defendants from entering upon the land. There are three contiguous villages, of which Panguru and Jangalapalli are the property of the plaintiff while the third Krishnampalli Agraharam, belongs to the defendants, who are the joint Agraharamdars. These villages have never been surveyed, which adds considerably to the difficulty of locating and identifying any piece of land within them. The plots in dispute are two blocks of forest land, block P being situated according to the plaintiff in Panguru and block J in Jangalapalli, while the defendants assert that they are comprised within the limits of their own village Krishnampalli. Each side has filed a plan in support of its allegations and these plans are considerably at variance; but there is no substantial disagreement as to the general situation of the two blocks, and it will be convenient to refer in discussing the evidence to the plaint plan.
