**************GIRSA SECTION*************
We recommend using the textual changes suggested by the Bach and the marginal notes of the Vilna Shas. This section is devoted to any OTHER important corrections that Acharonim have pointed out in the Gemara, Rashi and Tosfos
[1] Tosfos 95a DH Sefeko Asur ספקו אסור :
The words "v'Chanus ha'Mocheres Besar Neveilah" וחנות המוכרת בשר נבלה
should be "b'Chanus ha'Mocheres Besar Neveilah" בחנות המוכרת בשר נבלה
[2] Rashi 95b DH Mechaver מחוור:
It appears that Rashi had the Girsa of the Aruch, "Machlil," מחליל and NOT Mechaver מחוור.
[3] Rashi and Tosfos 95b DH Treisar תריסר:
The word "Treisar" תריסר
should be "Teleisar" תליסר (RASHASH)

7)[line 14]בשר, כיון שנתעלם מן העיןBASAR, KEIVAN SHE'NIS'ALEM MIN HA'AYIN (BASAR SHE'NIS'ALEM MIN HA'AYIN)
Meat that was not constantly watched from the time that the animal was slaughtered is called Basar she'Nisalem Min ha'Ayin (lit. meat that has disappeared from the eye's view). There are those who maintain that we suspect that the meat was somehow exchanged with the meat of a Neveilah.
8)[line 21]נמצאNIMTZA- [meat] that is found [lying in the street]
9)[line 21]הלך אחר הרובHALECH ACHAR HA'ROV (KOL D'PARISH, ME'RUBA KA PARISH / KOL KAVU'A, K'MECHETZAH AL MECHETZAH DAMI)
(a)KOL D'PARISH, ME'RUBA PARISH - When there is a doubt as to the source of a certain item, i.e. from where it comes or to which group it belongs, the Torah informs us that we may resolve the doubt according to certain set rules. One of these rules is "Halech Achar ha'Rov" (assume that an item comes from the largest group). For instance, if a piece of meat is found lying on the street (or in the hands of a Nochri in the street), and most of the meat in the town is Kosher, it can be safely assumed that the meat is kosher. The source for Halech Achar ha'Rov is the verse, "Acharei Rabim l'Hatos" (Shemos 23:2, Chulin 11a).
(b)KOL KAVU'A, K'MECHETZAH AL MECHETZAH DAMI - If, however, the nature of the item is in doubt while it is still "in its place," or Kavu'a, (i.e. it was not separated from the other items of its kind), we do not follow the Rov. Instead, we remain in doubt as to the status of the item. For instance, if a person buys meat and then forgets whether he bought it at a Kosher or non-Kosher store, we cannot assume that the meat is Kosher just because most of the stores in the town are Kosher; we are questioning its status while it is still in its proper place (the store) before it was separated from the other pieces of meat in the store.
