The gemara brings different explanations as to what Reish Lakish and Rabbi Yochanan are debating regarding a minor whether or not she can acquire through a chatzer or not. The mishna raises a case where an animal was running and ran into someone’s courtyard. He can acquire is by saying “my field acquired it” as long as the animal can’t run very fast (i.e. has a broken leg). Shmuel and others qualify the mishna and says it only works if the owner is standing nearby and that assumes that we are referring to an unprotected field (in a protected field one would not need to be standing by). The gemara attempts to bring a proof for this but rejects the proof. Rabbi Abba raises a question against this position from a mishna. Various explanations of the mishna are brought to resolve the contradiction.
