Where the tenant under a lease remained in possession after the expiration of the lease for a term of years according to its provisions pending the fixing by appraisers of the amount of rental to be paid for a subsequent period, in accordance with the provisions of a written agreement entered into between the lessor and lessee prior to the original lease, and the lessor received payment on account of rents for such subsequent period and brought suit to enforce security given for the payment of such rents, held that such lessee was not a trespasser in continuing in possession of the premises but was a tenant.
