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.
“... We are of the opinion the evidence unmistakenly demonstrates that it was the clear intention of the original grantor, Mrs. Annie K. Varnado, not to convey the Ainsworth Building. Neither did the original grantees, Peggy Wiggins and Durwood McGuffie, intend to purchase the property in dispute nor did McGuffie intend to subsequently convey it to Elizabeth Brown. Even though the deed description after survey included part of the Ainsworth Building, it is not the description they intended to write which controls, but the property the parties intended to include in the description used... . Moreover, we are of the opinion the evidence demonstrates beyond a reasonable doubt a mutual mistake on the part of the original grantor and grantees. [Emphasis added]”
