      —when tenancy from year to year created. Where a lessee, before the expiration of his term as subtenant under a lease, signed a renewal lease for three years and gave it to the lessor's agent, who forwarded it to the lessor, who did not notify the agent or the lessee that he had accepted it until a year and a half later and after the lessee, having occupied the premises for a year, had notified the ^.gent of his termination of the lease and had surrendered the premises, held that the lessee was not bound for rent after that time as the instrument was merely a proposed lease and had not been accepted in time by the lessor, the lessee’s continuing in possession creating merely a tenancy from year to year.
