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 2 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

1. ““In a comparatively recent case it was held that a deed in which the name of the-grantee was altered after delivery is a material alteration, and that a deed so altered is void as a forgery, and that purchasers from the grantee named after the forgery acquire no right to the property, though they were innocent of the forgery and had m> notice thereof.””
