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.
““All patents and certificates of purchase on State or school lands heretofore issued and in which a reservation of rights to minerals, ores and metals of any kind or character whatsoever, or coal, asphaltum, oil, gas and other like substances has been made, are hereby- validated: Provided, that the holders of such certificates of purchase or the owners of said lands so patented shall by contract, deed or other agreement acknowledge or reconvey to the State the minerals and substances so reserved, and the State Board of Land Commissioners is hereby authorized to accept on behalf of the State such deeds and conveyances and to make such agreements as may be necessary to carry out the provisions of this Act.””
