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 4 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““This would make the judgment void against him, (Price,) but not against Pabel. If a motion had been made lo vacate it as against Price, this would have been so done as to leave it in force against Fabel from the time of its rendition. Sueli a motion, not having been made, execution was properly issued, in conformity with the judgment against both, though, as was legally proper, it was enforced only against the property of Fabel.””
