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 9 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““It will thus be seen that the issue as to whether the transaction in question was a gratuitous bailment, or a bailment for mutual benefit, was a question of fact to be submitted to the jury under proper instructions.
