¶1The tenant is in possession of the premises in question under a written lease which contains the following provision: “ Should the said premises be sold the tenant agrees to vacate same to any time on 30 days notice.” The premises were sold and a notice was given “ that in accordance with the terms of the lease must ask you to vacate house 619 West 142 Street within 30 days from June 1.”
¶2The tenant failed to vacate on the day set and this summary proceeding was brought to dispossess the tenant as a holdover. The court below decided that *404the tenancy had expired and awarded the possession of the premises to the landlord.
¶3This conclnsion we think was error. The provision of the lease under which the landlord claims possession is a condition of the lease and not a conditional limitation. The term of the lease did not expire by the giving of the thirty days ’ notice. By refusing to vacate the tenant has breached a covenant which gives the landlord the right to re-enter or a suit for damages. The tenant is not a holdover until his lease has expired. Therefore summary proceedings did not lie. Re-entry can only be accomplished by an action in ejectment.
¶4Judgment appealed from reversed, with thirty doP lars costs and petition dismissed.
