Another case is brought similar to the previous mishna – if a man betroths a woman claiming he own a piece of land a particular size or in a particular place.  The gemara discusses how we determine the measurement – if it includes rocks and clefts or not.  The next mishna raises a basic argument between Rabbi Meir and Rabbi Chanina ben Gamliel regarding a condition – whether a tnai kaful is needed – does one need to state both sides of the condition – if x, then y and if not x then z?  Or is it enough to state if x and one can infer what will happen if it’s not fulfilled.
