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 37 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““Some of these matters are shown by the undisputed evidence in the case, and some are found by the verdict which the court declined to set aside. Besides, these questions seem to be more in the nature of a cross-examination than of a request to file conclusions- of fact. We think the court did not err in refusing to answer them.””
