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.
“Exhibit A. “Whereas, there is a misunderstanding about the payment of freight and feed on 2,600 lambs shipped from California about November, 1920. It is agreed between W. J. Farrar and Fred Perkins that each pay one-half of the freight, and when the freight is collected from T. L. Pitman or the Pitman Live Stock Company, it shall be diyided equally between said Farrar and Perkins. If the freight shall be paid in sheep or lambs and there is a loss on them, the loss shall be shared equally and all expense in collecting, including attorney fees if any, shall be shared equally. “With this agreement said Farrar acknowledges the receipt of $1,859.39 from Perkins, which is paid to him with the understanding that he advance an equal amount this day. “W. J. Farrar. “Fred Perkins. “Executed at Oswego, Kan., this 17th day of February, 19-21.””
