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 12 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““It would seem, under the authority of these cases, that the purchaser for a valuable consideration without previous notice is not chargeable with constructive notice of the fraudulent intent of his vendor; but under these authorities, as well as under former decisions of this court (Smith v.
