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 3 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““There seems to have been no connection nor relationship between the plans and specifications for the two-story building, which the defendant never constructed, and the plans and specifications of the three-story building, which he did construct, unless it be that the latter was located at the same place where the defendant had intended to locate the former. We think the trial court properly treated the two sets of plans and specifications, respectively, as applying entirely tO' different buildings. There does not appear to be any evidence that the plans and specifications not used lessened the work upon or the value of the plans and specifications which were used.””
