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 11 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““While a master has no power to set aside the contract made by the charter party, yet where, at the time of loading, questions arise between the ship and the charterer as to the proper construction of minor clauses in the contract, in the absence of the owners, the master, as their agent, must necessarily deal with the same, and his construction and agreements in relation thereto are binding on the owners.””
1 later decision quote this exact passage““ * * * It is * * * well settled that, if the respondent desires affirmative relief beyond defeating the libel, and a decree over against ihe libel-ant, he must, besides answering the case made by the libel, file a cross-libel, by which we understand an independent proceeding with the formalities attendant upon an original libel.””
