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 5 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““It is one of the assignments of error that the venue was not proven. Whether there was sufficient circhmstantial evidence to establish the venue beyond any reasonable doubt it is unnecessary to decide, since, as will be seen, we hold that there must be a new trial on another ground. ... .Of course it is elementary that proof of venue is a necessary element to conviction in criminal cases; but it is proof which, through inadvertence, the district attorneys too often fail to produce when it could be easily given.””
