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 services rendered the Tjauriberga by the Wharton and crew were salvage services, hut of a low grade, involving some risk to the steamer of the libelant, hut little more than she had taken before in the pursuit, of her business of fishing, no particular peril of life or limb, no unusual expense, and no gallantry, courage, or heroism; and the lives of the officers and crew of the Itaunberga were in no immediate danger or peril. The time employed in said salvage service was about 12 hours.””
