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 9 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The fact that all the land south of the fence was cleared and the fact that all the land south of the fence, which could be cultivated, was in truth cultivated up to the fence plus the fact that the fence was maintained as the dividing line for so many years is the strongest kind of evidence that Charles Krueger as well as his successor, the plaintiff, claimed ownership in all the land south of the fence. In brief, the evidence shows that the plaintiff is the owner in fee simple of-Tract D by force of a title acquired by adverse possession: Gist v. Doke, 42 Or. 225 ( 70 Pac. 704 ); Dunnigan v. Wood, 58 Or. 119, 125 ( 112 Pac. 531 ); Stout v. Michelbook, 58 Or. 372 ( 114 Pac. 929 ).””
