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 19 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The instruction, as requested, is as follows: ‘If you find from the evidence that the house where the defendant took the girl is only a ' house where one woman lives, then I charge you that such a house is not a house of ill-fame.’ The court added, ‘unless it is used for the purposes of prostitution’. The amendment was pertinent and proper. A house kept by one woman may be entirely respectable and the woman virtuous; but one woman may be unchaste and may keep a house of ill-fame to which others resort for purposes of prostitution.””
