TO
THE APPARENT MISUNDERSTANDING WHICH SEEMS EXIST AMONG TINANTS regarding the Prevention of Eviction Ordinance was remarked upon by the Paisne Judge, Mr. Justice P. F. Cressell, at the Summary Court yesterday when he reserved judgment till Friday in a cass claiming for possession of premises. His Lordship stated that it appeared that most tenants sermed to be under the impression that the Ordinance was enacted so'ely for their protection from the landlord and, because of this protec- tion, they thought they could owe rents and still be protected.
