brought action to get Mr.. Keller to
vacate the Belield hotel Immediately.
MI. Keller claimed that he had rented
the hotel by verbal contract for oneyear.
and since there was no default in the
payment of rent he should be entitled
to retain possession of the property for
a full year. Mr.. Gross claimed that it
was agreed that if he found a purchaser
for the property Keller was to vacate
the hotel at once. MI. Gross proved to
the satisfaction of the court that he had
a prospective buyer. Judgment was
rendered in favor of Mr.. Gross.
