The sentences later courts lift from this opinion, ranked by how many decisions quote each — the parts of the opinion doing the work.

““We think the remedy given by chapter 125 is a special proceeding adapted to this case of distress of property, and that it expressly negatives a remedy by replevin in any other manner than is therein provided. We are therefore of the opinion that the plaintiff has not pursued the remedy prescribed by the law which governs in such cases, and that he cannot recover in this action.””
