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 8 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““Appellant insists that the exhibits to the complaint taken together constitute the contract, the specific performance of which he seeks in his action. There is no reference whatever in any one of these instruments to either of the others, and without such reference, under the statute of frauds which requires that all contracts for the sale of real estate shall be in writing, they cannot be construed together as constituting the contract, for extrinsic evidence cannot be heard to show their relation each to the others. The evidence of the relation must be within the instruments themselves. Many authorities sustain this principle, among which we cite Graham v. Henderson Elevator Co. (1916), 60 Ind. App. 697 , 111 N. E. 332 , which- contains a full discussion of the question, and cites numerous authorities.””
