2:3:1

משנה: הָאוֹמֵר לִשְׁלוּחוֹ צֵא וְקַדֵּשׁ לִי אִשָּׁה פְלוֹנִית בְּמָקוֹם פְּלוֹנִי וְהָלַךְ וְקִידְּשָׁהּ בְּמָקוֹם אַחֵר אֵינָהּ מְקוּדֶּשֶׁת. הֲרֵי הִיא בְמָקוֹם פְּלוֹנִי וְקִידְּשָׁהּ בְּמָקוֹם אַחֵר הֲרֵי זוֹ מְקוּדֶּשֶׁת.

MISHNAH: Somebody said to his agent: “Go and marry me preliminarily to woman X at place Y”; if he went and married him preliminarily at another place, she is not preliminarily married. “She is at place Y;” if he married him preliminarily at another place, she is preliminarily married125The geographical information is not part of the instruction of agency but an indication where the agent may discharge his commission..

הלכה: הָאוֹמֵר לִשְׁלוּחוֹ צֵא וְקַדֵּשׁ לִי אִשָּׁה פְלוֹנִית כול׳. מַתְנִיתָא דְלָא כְרִבִּי לָעְזָר. בְּרַם כְּרִבִּי לָעְזָר לְעוֹלָם הֲרֵי הִיא מְקוּדֶּשֶׁת עַד שֶׁיֹּאמַר לוֹ. אַל תַּקְדִּשֶׁינָּה לִי אֶלָּא בְמָקוֹם פְּלוֹנִי. וְהָלַךְ וְקִידְּשָׁהּ בֲּמָקוֹם אַחֵר.

HALAKHAH: “Somebody said to his agent: “Go and marry me preliminarily to woman X,” etc. The Mishnah does not follow Rebbi Eleazar126Both paragraphs parallel Giṭṭin6:4, Notes 83–84. The statement of the Tanna R. Eleazar is in Mishnah Giṭṭin6:5.. But following Rebbi Eleazar she is preliminarily married unless [the husband] tells [the agent]: Do not preliminarily marry me to her except at place X84This also is from Demay. and he went and executed the preliminary marriage at another place.

2:3:3

הֲרֵי זוֹ מְקוּדֶּשֶׁת. אוֹף רִבִּי לָעְזָר מוֹדֶה בָהּ. שֶׁאֵינוֹ אֶלֵּא כְמַרְאֶה לָהּ מָקוֹם. אוֹף רַבָּנִין מוֹדֵיי בָהּ. שֶׁאֵינוֹ אֶלֵּא כְמַרְאֶה לָהּ מָקוֹם.

“She is preliminarily married,” Rebbi Eleazar agrees that he only indicates a place; the rabbis agree that he only indicates a place127The Babli agrees, 59a..
