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 6 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“When the cause was brought on for hearing in the district court, no question was raised as to McAlpine's right to appeal, and it seems that this was taken for granted. The entire hearing was upon the theory that there was a proper contestant of the administrator's account before the court, and it is now too late to attack his right upon the grounds suggested on this review.”
