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 26 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The ease of Babcock v. United States, 3 Bill. 567, Fed. Cas. No. 14,484, relied upon as an authority as 1o the sufficiency of the identification of tlie telegrams, supports the view it is cited to sustain; but, with the highest respect for the learning and ability of the judges who granted the order for the subpoena in that case, we cannot agree with them. Their opinion, delivered by Judge Dillon, is totally at variance with our convictions on the subject.””
