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 6 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

1. ““It is clear, therefore, that Anna Boyden was not entitled to interplead and be made a party to the proceeding. But her petition was received without objection, and the testimony of herself and husband, in its support, was also received without objection; and no rulings were made, with respect to either of those matters, during the hearing. The plaintiff in error, therefore, is in no position to complain of the receiving of the petition or the testimony. Again, treating the petition of Anna Boyden as out of the case, we would have the testimony of her husband and herself, covering the ownership of the money, received and heard without objection; and even though such testimony might not have been admissible, except by consent, plaintiff in error must be held to have consented to it, or at least to have waived the error, if any, in allowing it to be taken, by his failure to offer objection.””
