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 3 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The proviso of Act 77 of 1904 (that in no case shall the delay exceed fifteen days in all) applies only to cases where the defendants reside more than 50 miles from the place where the Court is held. In such cases the citations should inform the defendants that they must answer within 15 days.” (Boldface type ours.)”
