Sometimes it happens that children who are not born in 13
their father's power are subsequcntly brought under it. Such
for instance is the case of a natural son made subject to his
father's power by being inscribed a member of the curia ; and
ao too is that of a child of a frec woman with whom his father
cohabited, thoiigh he could have lawfully married her, who is
subjected to thc power of his father by the subsequent execu-
tion of a dowry deed according to the terms of our constitution :
andthe same boon is in effect bestowed by that enactment on
children subsequently born of the same marriage.
