 interest  was not in quiet possession for three years before the time of
 the forcible or unlawful entry  or  detainer]  and  the  petitioner  was
 peaceably  in  actual possession at the time of the forcible or unlawful
 entry or in constructive possession at  the  time  of  the  forcible  or
 unlawful detainer; no notice to quit shall be required in order to main-
 tain a proceeding under this subdivision.
   § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
