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 2 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The plaintiff cites several cases to the effect that notice is required in all proceedings where life, liberty or property may be affected. We do not set those cases out here, but we agree with the principles therein expressed, and hold that the notice of administration given in this case was sufficient to bring the plaintiff into court. 12 C. J. § 1006, p. 1229. The setting apart of homestead to the widow and minor children is in the nature of a proceeding in rem, and is binding upon the whole world.””
