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 14 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“Since the statute requires that the clerk keep a record showing the filing of all claims against estates and of the allowance or disallowance of the same, and requires that the action of the executor or administrator in allowing or disallowing all claims be in writing, we hold that the allowance of a claim must be proven by the record, and that when the record does not show an allowance that the intention of the administrator to allow the claim cannot be proven by oral testimony.”
