Under the statute, to terminate a lease of property for a period of one year on account of the nonpayment of rent, a ten-days notice in writing to quit must he given to the tenant, and such a notice will not terminate the tenancy if the rent is paid before the expiration of the ten days.</p> <p>2. Same — Covenant Not to Underlet — Oral Consent of Landlord ■ — ■ Waiver. Where a hotel is leased with the condition that the premises shall not be underlet without the writtén consent of the landlord, and the tenant temporarily rents a room of the hotel to a printer in which to set up a small printing outfit, without obtaining* such written consent, and before it is done the landlord informs the printer that he has no objection to the use of the room for that purpose, he thereby waives the right to terminate the lease because of the underletting of the room, if that be a ground of forfeiture.</p>
