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.
““In regard to the question whether [the merchant appraiser] was a competent witness to prove that he was not familiar with the character and value of silk velvets we are of the opinion that his evidence on that subject was admissible. As the question of his familiarity with the article and with its value necessarily depended upon the nature and, to some degree at least, upon the extent of his experience in connection with the article, no one could know What that experience was so well as himself. If he is to be excluded as a witness on the subject, the court and the jury and the parties would be deprived of the best testimony within reach.””
