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.

1. ““The appellant objects to the additional nunc pro tunc entry thus made upon motion of the petitioners, insisting the court below could find no authority in the writ for sueh action. We think, if it was necessary, in order to show just what was done on December 26,1905, when the order of adjudication was made, to make this additional nunc pro tune entry, the court was warranted in doing so, and at the same time it had a right to correct the record by striking from it the paper purporting to contain all the evidence taken at the time of the adjudication, which was filed without , its authority, and inserting a complete statement thereof. The writ directed the court below to correct and ■complete the record, and we must accept the record as it now stands as correct and complete.””
