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 28 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““Doubtless it is competent for a lessor to enter into such stipulations with an assignee as to accept him as sole tenant, and-to absolve the original lessee from his contracts. But an intent to create a new contract and to annul, the lease as against the original lessee must be clearly shown; otherwise the rule of law by which the lessee and the assignee will both be held liable to the lessor must prevail.””
