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 3 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““It is too clear to be questioned that the bail, after the commitment of Ms principal to jail on Ms (the bail’s) application, can never repossess himself of him, or release him from prison, however anxiously he may be desirous of it! * * * By putting the principal where ho must abide the judgment rendered against him the bail is exonerated. As the principal was surrendered before the bail was fixed, the remedy by motion was undoubtedly correct.””
