Where a landlord does not require the whole or any part of any premises for a particular period and he lets the premises or part thereof as a residence for such period as may be agreed to in writing between himself and the tenant and the tenant does not, on the expiry of the said period, vacate such premises, the court may, on an application of such landlord, place him in vacant possession of the premises or part thereof by evicting the tenant and every other person who may be in occupation of such premises.
