61 R.I. 282, 284-85, 200 A. 765, 766 (1938). It is a covenant either express or implied in all leases that the leased premises be delivered to the landlord upon termination of the lease. Although holding over by the tenant is wrongful, the tenant is not immediately treated as a trespasser. The landlord has the power to determine the status of holdover tenants either by treating them as trespassers or by waiving the wrong of holding over and treating them as tenants. Rose, 72 R.I. at 25, 47 A.2d at 860; Providence County Savings Bank v. Hall,
