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 5 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The plain and obvious object the laAvmaker had in view in so amending the statute was to afford the administrator, executor, heir, or creditor of an estate, having reason to believe that an improper allowance had been made against the estate, an opportunity to have the same, within four months thereafter, set aside and the matter tried aneAV, and this, too, whether notice of the presentation is given to- the representative or. his agent. And this statutory enlargement of the jurisdiction of the probate court does not, in any way, alter or affect the jurisdiction of the circuit courts exercising equitable jurisdiction.””
