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 13 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The objection that no copy, or an insufficient copy, was served, must be taken advantage of by an exception before or during the trial; it is too late to interpose it after verdict or judgment, as was done in this case. “The record does affirmatively show the arraignment of the defendant, and the presence of himself and counsel, and the order setting the day for trial and ordering the special venire, and that no objection was made as to the service of the copy of the indictment and of the venire until after verdict. This was too late.””
