    Court found no breach of the covenant for quiet enjoyment because the plaintiff had undertaken responsibility for the doorway and there was no agreement on the sign; therefore plaintiff's claim for redecoration costs failed, plaintiff is entitled to return of the $8,000 deposit, defendant entitled to rent for October and November and $400 for trash removal and $400 for removal of plaintiff's shutter, and judgment entered for plaintiff $8,000 and for defendant $4,800.
