The court allowed the appeal and exercised its statutory and equitable discretion to grant relief against forfeiture and a stay of execution because the defendant established good cause by demonstrating the breach was an inadvertent slip and the landlord's acceptance of late rent (and interest) constituted waiver; accordingly relief was granted subject to conditions requiring punctual future payments and satisfaction of arrears by a specified date.
