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 3 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“* * * the evidence tends to show that during 1916 two of the plaintiffs, Alphonso Jackman and E.K. Cheadle, were directors, and that there was not a stockholders' meeting after that year. If there were but three directors, Jackman and Cheadle were a majority of the board. If so, they could have called a meeting of the board (section 5944, R.C. 1921) and have taken the requisite action.”
