Repairs.
A
tenant
who
covenants
to
keep
a
house
in
repair
is
not
answerable
for
its
natural
decay,
but
is
bound
to
keep
it
wind
and
water
tight,
so
that
it
does
not
decay
for
want
of
cover.
A
lessee
who
covenants
to
pay
rent
and
keep
the
premises
in
repair,
is
liable
to
pay
the
rent
although
the
premises
may
be
burned
down,
unless
a
stipulation
to
the
contrary
be
inserted
in
the
lease.
1478.
Neglect
of
Repairs
by
Landlord.
If
a
landlord
covenant
to
repair,
and
neglect
to
do
so,
the
tenant
may
do
it,
and
withhold
so
much
of
the
rent.
But
it
is
advisable
that
notice
thereof
should
be
given
by
the
tenant
to
the
landlord,
in
the
presence
of
a
witness,
prior
to
commencing
the
repairs.
1479.
Right
of
Landlord
to
Enter
Premises.
A
landlord
may
enter
upon
the
premises
(having
given
previous
notice,
although
not
expressed
in
the
lease),
for
the
purpose
of
viewing
the
state
of
the
property.
1480.
Termination
of
Leases.
A
tenant
must
deliver
up
possession
at
the
expiration
of
the
term
(the
lease
being
sufficient
notice),
or
he
will
continue
liable
to
the
rent
as
tenant
by
sufferance
without
any
new
contract;
but
if
the
landlord
recognises
such
tenancy
by
accepting
a
payment
of
rent
after
the
lease
has
expired,
such
acceptance
will
constitute
a
tenancy;
but
previous
to
accepting
rent,
the
landlord
may
bring
his
ejectment
without
notice;
for,
the
lease
having
expired,
the
tenant
is
a
trespasser.
A
lease
covenanted
to
be
void
if
the
rent
be
not
paid
upon
the
day
appointed,
is
good,
unless
the
landlord
make
an
entry.
