The landlord by serving upon relator the three days’ notice in writing provided for in subdivision 2 of section 9889, Revised Codes, elected to treat relator as a tenant from month to month. Mahoney v. Lester, supra; 32 Am. Jur. sec. 941, p. 793; Annotation, 152 A. L. R. 1416. Upon being served with such notice the relator had three days in which to pay the rent due on the 15th days of February and March or to deliver up the possession of the property. The relator failed and refused to pay the rent or surrender possession within three days after service of the notice and, by continuing in possession, he became guilty of unlawful detainer under subdivision 2 of section 9889, Revised Codes.
