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 8 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““Complainant purchased the land for $300 cash, understanding that he was obtaining the title in fee subject- to the incumbrance. He paid the mortgage thinking he was relieving his own land from the incumbrance, and having paid the mortgage upon the land which in fact he did not own, became its equitable owner, and entitled to be so considered and to have the same declared to be a subsisting lien upon the land.””
