Daf 67b
Raba said in the name of R. Nahman: If the purchaser takes formal possession of the shore he becomes thereby owner of the bed. Surely this is self-evident, since Samuel has laid down that if a man sells the fields, etc.? — You might argue that in that case the reason is that all the earth is one stretch, but here one thing is used for one purpose and the other for another. Now I know [that we do not argue thus]. MISHNAH. IF A MAN SELLS AN OLIVE PRESS, HE [AUTOMATICALLY] SELLS THEREWITH THE SEA AND THE POUNDING STONE AND THE 'MAIDENS', BUT HE DOES NOT SELL THE THWARTS NOR THE WHEEL NOR THE BEAM. IF, HOWEVER, HE SAYS TO THE PURCHASER, '[I SELL] IT AND ALL ITS CONTENTS', ALL THESE THINGS ARE INCLUDED IN THE SALE. R. ELIEZER SAYS THAT IF A MAN SELLS AN OLIVE PRESS HE INCLUDES THE BEAM. GEMARA. The SEA is [what is called in Aramaic] 'lentil'. The POUNDING STONE, according to R. Abba bar Memel, is [what is called in Aramaic] 'crusher'. The 'MAIDENS', according to R. Johanan, are cedar posts by which the beam is supported. By THWARTS is meant planks. The WHEEL is a winch. The BEAM is actually a beam. Our Rabbis taught: If a man sells an olive press, he sells therewith the planks and the tanks and the crushers and the lower millstone but not the upper one. If he uses the formula 'it and all its contents', all these are sold with it. In either case he does not sell the stirrers nor the sacks and leather bags. R. Eliezer says that if a man sells an olive press he automatically includes the beam, since it is this which gives the olive press its name. MISHNAH. IF A MAN SELLS A BATH HE DOES NOT [AUTOMATICALLY] INCLUDE EITHER THE PLANKS OR THE BASINS OR THE BATHING APPAREL. IF HE SAYS TO THE PURCHASER, [I SELL YOU] 'IT AND ALL ITS CONTENTS', ALL THESE ARE INCLUDED. IN EITHER CASE HE DOES NOT SELL THE CISTERNS OF WATER NOR THE SHEDS FOR WOOD. GEMARA. Our Rabbis taught: If a man sells a bath, he [automatically] includes the cupboards for the boards and for the head towels and for the basins and the curtains, but not the boards nor the head towels nor the basins nor the curtains themselves. If he says to the purchaser, ['I sell you] it and all its contents', all these are included. In either case he does not include the pools which supply him with water whether
