There was no citation...

My understanding of the conventions of citation matches your own, though I sometimes hesitate between just giving the original source (because it's the original source, after all) and the "as quoted in" version. Cutting out all mention of the helpful intermediary feels a little discourteous, somehow, even if it's probably superfluous to the needs of most readers.
