zer into the business, which they reformed as a partnership named Joe's Racing. Creel contributed as capital to the partnership inventory and supplies of the old business, valued at $15,000.

The partners agreed to share profits and losses with 52 percent going to Creel and 24 percent each to Lilly and Altizer.
