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 16 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““We do not think the court erred in overruling the demurrer. This is not a case of an indictment charging in the same count two separate and distinct offenses for which different punishments are prescribed. The indictment charges the commission of but one offense. The act of knowingly receiving and accepting a deposit and knowingly permitting it to be received and accepted constitutes the same offense. It is true it may be committed in a different mode, but the punishment is the same, and the same character of testimony is necessary in each case.””
