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 22 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““As against any defendant who resides in the county where such suit may be brought, and who appears by the record of deeds in said county to be the owner of any of the lands proceeded against, notice of the pending suit shall be given by the service of personal summons of the court at least twenty days before the day on which said defendant is required to .answer, as set out in said summons. * * * And, provided further, actual service of summons shall be had when the defendant is in the county or when there is an occupant upon the land.” Acts of 1895, c. 71, § 1, pp. 89, 90.”
