Does the dispensation of running with a bundle to one's home apply equally to one's purse?

ShabbatCarrying

Synopsis

There is a tannaic-level dispute whether the running-home leniency applies equally to a purse (light object) or only to a bundle (heavy object). The Mechaber cites both views; the Rema addresses the case of one who forgot the purse on his person during Shabbos.
