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 8 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The first error assigned and" argued is that the chancellor erred in denying the application for a change of venue. While the motion for a change of venue becomes a part of the record in a chancery case when it is filed, the affidavit supporting the motion, which the statute requires shall be attached to it, does not become a part of the record unless preserved by a certificate of evidence. (Bellinger v. Barnes, 223 Ill. 121 ; VanPelt v. Dunford, 58 id. 145 .) The fact that the affidavit in support of the motion has been copied into the record by the clerk does not bring it before us for our consideration. (DuQuoin Waterworks Co. v. Parks, 207 Ill. 46 ; Lange v. Heyer, 195 id. 420.) The question is not presented for review.””
