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

““In the present case the defendant should have been permitted to show to the jury, if he could, that the statements of the witness were inconsistent with the earlier memorandum or record from which he claimed to have* refreshed his memory.
