  1. ““4th. That in ease I shall have any interest in any new co-partnership which may he formed after the expiration of the present co-partnership, on the first January, 1885, or at any earlier date, for the transaction of business in corsets, busks, crinolines, or goods of that character, then Mr. William A. Nettleton shall be a partner in said business, and shall have for his services ■an interest therein of 25%, without the necessity of furnishing any capital to the same; and, in case I retire from the business, I hereby agree that the contract and agreement made between us on the 31st October, 1878, shall in that •case become null and void, and that all the rights and privileges ceded by yon to me shall then revert to you.””
