.This writ brings up for review an order of removal under landlord and tenant proceedings. The principal ground relied on for reversal is that the affidavit shows that the defendant below was a tenant at sufferance and not from month to month; that the one month's notice to quit was insufficient to terminate the tenancy, and that therefore the District Court was without jurisdiction. The affidavit of the landlord sets forth “that he let and rented the said premises to Thomas Kenny on tire thirteenth day of April, a. d. 1902, for the term of-one month from the thirteenth day of April, a. d. 1902, to the thirteenth day of May, A. D. 1902, at the monthly rental of forty-live dollars a month, payable monthly, and that, the said Thomas Kenny entered into the possession of said premises by virtue of the said agree.ment, which said term has expired, • and the said Thomas Kenny holds over and continues in possession of the said premises; that on the thirteenth day of July last, he made
The notice annexed reads as follows:
"Mr. Thomas Kenny—
“You are hereby notified and required to quit the premises rented by you of me and now occupied by you, being, &c., * * * on the thirteenth day of August, a. d. 1902, that being the end of a monthly term your occupation, and your term being hereby ended at that time, and to deliver possession thereof unto me on that day.

The affidavit shows a rental for. one month, • and that the tenant was holding over, and the date of the dqmand and notice to deliver possession shows that the tenant had then held over for the period of two months succeeding the term of the lease. Now, if this holding over was with the consent of the landlord, the relation of the tenant with the landlord would be that of a tenancy from month to month and not a tenancy at sufferance. The doctrine is stated by Lord Mansfield in Right v. Darby, 1 T. R. 162, as follows: “If there be a lease for ^a year, and by consent of both parties the tenant continue in possession afterwards, the law implies a tacit renovation of the contract. They are supposed to have renewed the old agreement which was to hold for 'a year.” This doctrine was approved in Decker v. Adams, 7 Halst. 99. The same principle applies where the lease is for less than a year, and it has been held that a tenant for the specified period of one month, who holds over with the consent of his landlord, thereby becomes a. tenant from month to month.
