The rationale in the ruling of the Kentucky Fried Chicken case (supra) is that the tenant who is given a short period of time to act or face eviction is entitled to know with certainty that the notice is actually from the landlord. No duty of inquiry should be imposed upon the tenant. The Appellate Division held that since " '[t]he tenant is [required] to act upon [such] notice at the time it is given * * * it ought to be such a one as he can act upon with safety’ ” (supra, 108 AD2d, at 220, citing Reeder v Sayre, 70 NY 180,187-188).
