• 91 Ill. 523

Syllabus

<p>1. Appeal—from Appellate Court—facts found not open to review. The finding of facts by the Appellate Court is conclusive in all appeals to this court, and the affirmance of a judgment by the Appellate Court is equivalent to finding the facts the same as the jury did.</p> <p>2. Landlord and tenant—lease by the month, how terminated. Where, after a lease for one year has expired, a new lease is made by the month, the landlord has the undoubted right to terminate the lease at the end of any month, by giving the proper notice.</p> <p>S'; Same—when tenancy is from month to month. Where a party enters into possession of premises under a verbal letting which is voidable under the Statute of Frauds, agreeing to pay rent monthly, which he pays as it accrues, he becomes a tenant from month to month.</p>
