The tenant sought to argue that having vacated the premises before the end of the lease, he had surrendered and there was no continuing statutory tenancy under which he might be liable to pay rent.
Held: The tenant had left various items in the premises including papers and stock. The effective date of quitting would be the date upon which these were removed, and not before.
