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 6 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““ The last clause of the third instruction given for plaintiff, to wit, 1 and if the jury consider it more probable, from all the facts and circumstances as shown by the evidence, that the contract was that such work was to be paid for by Warner & Edwards, then the jury should so find,’ was also objectionable. The jury should not have been left at liberty to speculate on probabilities but should have been satisfied by the greater weight of evidence that Warner & Edwards, and not Edwards and Woods, were to pay for the work in question.””
