    In Socony-Vacuum Oil Co., Inc. v. Texas Co., 113 F. Supp. 514 (E.D.Mich., 1953), Judge Picard held that while a husband and wife could be partners in the same partnership, they could not be the sole partners.

Fischer, 278 Mich. 32, 270 N.W. 205; and Kachanowski v. Cohen, 305 Mich. 438, 9 N.W.2d 667, where a lease or a deed is delivered upon condition or the happening of some contingency it may be shown that such condition or contingency never came into existence. In our opinion the Nemeths merely made an offer to plaintiff which plaintiff was not bound to accept.
