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 4 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

1. ““Plaintiffs pleaded a more accurate description of a tract of land, but they did not prove that the more accurately described tract was the same tract as described in Exhibit No. 1. They never did locate the land by extrinsic evidence, or otherwise. The issue of location being an issue of title in such cases, the burden was upon plaintiffs to locate the land upon the ground. See Withers v. Republic National Bank of Dallas, Tex.Civ.App., 248 S.W.2d 271 , and the authorities therein cited. The second and tenth points are overruled.””
