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 6 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

  1. ““It is contended by plaintiffs in error that the conveyance to Matilda Ohler from Zacherie vested title in the community estate of Matilda and her husband, and not in her separate estate, there being nothing in the record to show the' contrary (Kin Kaid v. Lee, 54 Tex.Civ.App. 622 , 119 S. W. 342 ), and therefore, the husband having executed such deed by an attorney in fact, the conveyance carried good title into Headen. * * * “No power of attorney from Edward Ohler to his wife was shown, but, if we assume that, after lapse of'years, its execu tion will be presumed (Garner v. Lasker, 71 Tex. [431], 435, 9 S.W. 332 : Huling v. Moore, Tex.Civ.App., 194 S.W. 188 ), the deed is nevertheless inoperative because he is not named as a grantor in the body of the deed which purports to be wholly the act of another, viz.: Matilda Ohler. It must appear from the body of the conveyance itself that Edward Ohler is a grantor therein. Stone v. Sledge, 87 Tex. 49 , 26 S. W. 1068 , 47 Am.St.Rep. 65 ; Creosoted Wood Block Paving Co. v. McKay, Tex. Civ.App., 211 S.W. 822 ; Jackson v. Craigen, Tex.Civ.App., 167 S.W. 1101 .””

  2. “The deed from Mrs. Ohler, for the reasons above stated, was void and properly attackable by the defendant in error; it is therefore not such color of title as will support limitation by possession for three years. Garner v. Black, 95 Tex. 125 , 65 S.W. 876 ; Burnham v. Hardy Oil Co. 108 Tex. 555 , 195 S.W. 1139 ; Spikes-Nash Co. v. Manning (Tex.Civ.App.), 204 S.W. 374 .”
