Most-quoted passages
The sentences later courts lift from this opinion, ranked by how many decisions quote each — the parts of the opinion doing the work. These counts are smaller than the citation total above because most of the 22 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““We think it well settled that where the incumbrance is not made a part of the consideration, and not deducted from it, and where it is not assumed by the grantee, the recital in a deed that the conveyance is subject to an incumbrance does not estop the grantee from showing that what purports to be an incumbrance is not one in fact because of its invalidity, or because it has been satisfied.” Brooks v. Owen, 112 Mo. 251 ( 19 S. W. 725 ).”
