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 9 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““Within sixty days after the expiration of the time limited for creditors to present their claims every executor or administrator shall render an account of his administration to the county court, and such court shall thereupon direct the executor or administrator to proceed forthwith to the payment of the debts and to a final settlement of the estate in the manner prescribed by law unless it shall satisfactorily appear to the court: [Listing the grounds for extending the time for closing of the estate as provided in sec. 313.14].””
