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 11 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““Under the law of this State, as settled by numerous decisions of this court, a mortgage given to secure two or more notes, maturing at different dates and assigned to different holders, must be considered as if there were as many different successive mortgages as there were of such notes, and the holder of the note first due will have priority, and the holder of the other note or notes will come in, in the same order in which such note or notes matured.””
