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 7 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“[i]n the present case the defendant has a judgment for return which may be enforced by an action on the replevin bond. We must assume, therefore, that he will receive back the wagon replevied in as good a condition, and that it will be at least of as great value, as when replevied, or that if not returned, the defendant may recover that value in an action on the bond.”
