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 10 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“To correct, rectify, amend, remodel. Instruments inter partes may be reformed, when defective, by a court of equity. By this is meant that the court, after ascertaining the real and original intention of the parties to a deed or other instrument, (which intention they failed to sufficiently express, through some error, mistake of fact or inadvertence,) will decree that the instrument be held and construed as if it fully and technically expressed that intention. Churchill v. Mead [Meade], 92 Or. 626 , 182 P. 368, 371 ; Gross v. Yeskel, 100 N.J.E.Q. 293, 134 A. 737 .”
