Although appellant had exclusive possession and thus was a tenant at common law, the Proclamation contemplates tenants who fall within the defined classes (principal tenant or sub-tenant) and contemplates rent payable in money; accommodation provided as remuneration for employment (services) is not within the meaning of 'tenant' under Proclamation No.15 of 1945, therefore appellant could not claim bona-fide possession under a landlord and the eviction order must be upheld.
