Teshuvot Maharam

Q. A gave a writ of bestowal of movable property to B, in which the clause "the movable property is thus transferred to B together with, and by dint of, real property", was missing. Is the gift binding?
A. I have examined the writ of bestowal and could find nothing wrong with it, for title to movable property can also be transferred by halifin (symbol of exchange).
