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.
“At § 52 of Stearns on Suretyship (3d ed.), page 64, it is said: “A guaranty is special when it is addressed to a particular person, firm or corporation, and, when so addressed, only the promisee named in the instrument acquires any rights under it.” . . . At 16 of the chapter on Guaranty in 28 C.J., page 897, it is said: “A special guaranty is one which is addressed to a particular person who alone can take advantage of it, and to whom only the guarantor can be held responsible; it usually, but not necessarily, contemplates a trust or reposes a confidence in the person to whom it is addressed.””
