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 44 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““This court, in Willis v. Vallett, supra, quoting from 4th Kent’s Commentaries, says: “The general doctrine is, that whatever puts a party on inquiry, amounts in judgment of law to notice, provided the inquiry becomes a duty, as in the case of purchasers and creditors, and would lead to the knowledge of the requisite fact by the exercise of ordinary intelligence and understanding.’ Russell v. Petree, 10 B. M. 184; Bennett v. Titherington, 6 Bush 196 .””
