On making the rule for a writ of possession absolute, the court may direct a reasonable stay of execution. If the person in possession is a tenant, execution shall be stayed until the usual expiration of the year of tenants, according to the custom of letting in the place, or neighborhood, wherein the premises are situate. (Code 1852, § 2468; Code 1915, § 4385; Code 1935 § 4843; 10 Del. C. 1953, § 5017.)
