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.
““The lease was canceled by mutual agreement under seal. The failure of the arbitration cannot restore the abandoned contract. Ho suit, therefore, can be maintained upon it for it does not exist. If Hiscoclc remained in possession he was not in under the lease. If he was liable for anything it was not for the rent reserved. If he can sue for anything it is not upon the covenants in the lease. It can only be for compensation for its surrender.””
