    Grace McGee v. Anthony Sigmund.
    Error to the Court of Appeals of Highland County.
    615. HUSBAND AND WIFE — Such consorts can, under 799 GC. contract with each other, but not with reference to certain hope of inheritance. 7 OS. 432 followed.
   ROBINSON, J.

Section 7999, General Code, does not confer upon husband or wife any greater power to contract with each other than persons other than husband and wife possess. A husband or a wife is not thereby empowered to contract with the other with reference to a hope or expectancy of inheritance, which is neither vested nor contingent, (Needles v. Needles, 7 OS. 432, approved and followed.)

Judgment affirmed.

Jones, Matthias and Day, JJ., concur. Marshall, C. J., Wanamaker and Allen, JJ., dissent.
