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 23 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““ The statute of limitations having run in favor of Mrs. Jackson, she was discharged from personal liability on the note, and therefore she sustained the same relation to the note as though she had never signed it, but this in no way affected her agreement that her property should be subjected to the payment of her husband’s debt evidenced by the note, and the case remained the same as though he only had signed the note when it was made, and both had at that time given a mortgage to secure it.””
