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 7 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““We can see no good reason why interest apon a judgment, which is secured by posifive law, is not as much a part of the judgment as if expressed in it. The legislature say: ‘All judgments shall bear interest at, Hie rato of eight per cent.’ Gan the judgment be satisfied without paying the interest? It is the practice in Mississippi and several other states to include no interest in the judgment, except wlint is then due, but to leave it to Uie collecting officer to calculate the amount of interest, according to law, when h© settles with the defendant.””
