1. ““Under the leases appellee had the right to occupy the premises for his own purpose, or to sublet, or to permit another to occupy the same. The possession of the premises by another, with appellee’s consent, was appellee’s possession. Possession having been delivered to appellee, under the_ terms of the leases, he had the right, at his option, to extend the term for a period of four years and ten months beyond the 1st day of February, 1930. That this option is exercised by continuing in possession, and paying rent after the 1st day of February, 1930, and that by so doing appellee would be liable for the rent for the entire period, is well settled and not disputed.””
