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 26 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““Her assignment was not placed upon record until some two years afterwards; nor was it necessary in order to protect herself against a subsequent mortgage or conveyance from Maass, for the recording statutes only apply to successive purchasers from the same sellers, (Raynor v. Wilson, 6 Hill, 469 ), and the record of the assignment of the mortgage would only be constructive notice of such assignment, as against subsequent assignees of the mortgagee. (N. Y. Life Ins. Co. v. Smith) 2 Barb. Ch. R. 82) The omission to record it would be no fraud upon a junior mortgagee, nor estop her from setting up her claim to defeat his mortgage.””
