Y 1 The Downtown SHILLELAGH MOTOR HOTEL Country and Western Music every Friday & Saturday Nig_I ht I A former friend of mine is holding possession of some clothes and personal things until I pay him a month's rent which I don't think I'm required to. Here is what happened ... I lived in a house owned by a friend of mine, also living there was himself, his wife, and a couple of other guys. We all paid $50.00 a month to cover expenses, and we shared with the housework, cooking, etc. Anyway, I was accused by my friend's wife of not doing my share. This started a big row and I told them I was leaving the next day. He said fine, but that I would have to pay a month's rent since I wasn't giving notice. Can he make me pay? No, your friend is wrong. You would have to pay a month's rent or give a month's notice if the Landlord and Tenant Act applied. But it doesn't apply where you share the place, and where you do not have exclusive possession of at least one part of it. The result is that you are technically a boarder, and not a tenant, Unless you specifically agree to give a month's notice, you must only give 'reasonable notice' to end the arrangement. Exeter Flowers & Gifts ...A ., ORIGINAL OIL PAINTINGS ..7-TA, BUY OR LEASE ,..1. Ben J. L. HOOGENBOOM 235.0111 509 MAIN STREET Two weeks ago this column wrote about a person who had bought a painting with a cheque. This is to assure all our readers that this purchase was NOT made from Exeter Flowers & Gifts. Mr. Ben Hoogenboom, the proprietor of this well known local store was most annoyed when he read it and felt that many people would assume that his store was the one involved, since he is now selling and leasing original oil paintings. We sincerely regret any implication, anchor, embarrass- ment, that this may have caused him and we apologize herewith. We pointed out to Mr. Hoogenboom that "IMPACT" is a syndicated weekly feature and just like the famous Ann Landers column, we cannot guarantee that all letters and answers originate from this area, although we do like to use local letters of interest wherever possible.
