The lease was validly executed and admissible in evidence upon the plaintiff's solicitor's undertaking; the defendant repudiated the lease by prematurely terminating and vacating, entitling the plaintiff to damages representing lost rent until reletting (accounting for lower reletting rent), reimbursement of half the stamp duty but not any penalty, rates as contractually allocated, and proven repair costs; the defendant's counterclaim was dismissed for lack of evidence.
