Leah leased an apartment to Rebeca for a one-year term beginning May 1, at $800 a month, “payable in advance on the first day of each and every month of said term.” At the time the lease was signed, Rebecca told Leah that she received her salary on the tenth of the month, and that she would be unable to pay the rent before that date each month.
