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 32 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“"The information here alleged that the defendant `did, by force, violence or putting Pearl Snyder in fear, feloniously rob, steal and take away' certain personal property. Simple assault, as pointed out in the District Court's decision, is defined as `an intentional, unlawful threat by word or act to do violence to the person of another coupled with an apparent ability to do so, and doing some act which creates a well founded fear of such violence being done.' The language in the information appears to be sufficient to fall within this definition of assault. The information, however, is not sufficient as regards the offenses of aggravated assault (no allegation of assault with a deadly weapon) and assault and battery (no allegation of battery)."”
