The defendant failed to prove animus possidendi because the weight of evidence established she paid rent to the plaintiffs' predecessors and to agents from 1971 to 2005, accepted and relied on a tenancy agreement in 2005 and surrendered Land B; contemporaneous recorded admissions corroborated payments; therefore possession was under the plaintiffs' title and adverse possession was not established; counterclaim dismissed and plaintiffs entitled to vacant possession, mesne profits and costs.
