Object of limited partnership. — A limited partnership is strictly a creature of statute, its object being to enable persons not desiring to engage in a particular business to invest capital in it and to share in the profits which might be expected to result from its use, without becoming liable as general partners for all partnership debts.

Partnership upon execution of agreement. — Where a written agreement is clear and unambiguous that the parties agreed to form a limited partnership pursuant to statute and to execute a certificate setting forth its duration and specifically providing that a partnership was to begin upon the execution of the certificate, a limited partnership as between the parties came into existence upon their execution of the certificate of limited partnership.
