b. 123

composition: Op. 43, Tarantella

A, FC3 (→FE→IE), EE

GE
..

In GE accent on the second beat of the bar must have been mistakenly omitted.

b. 123

composition: Op. 39, Scherzo in C♯ minor

No sign in EE and FE

 in GC (→GE)
..

The authenticity of the hairpin  in GC (→GE) is doubtless, yet it is hard to determine what caused the difference between the sources (omission of the mark in one pair of sources or adding it in the other are the two possible options).

b. 123-124

composition: Op. 39, Scherzo in C♯ minor

..

In EE and GE the tie sustaining c sharp was omitted, which is an obvious oversight.

b. 123

composition: Op. 38, Ballade in F major

Dotted minim in A (→FE,EE) & GE

Minim in GC
..

The lack of a dot extending the G1 minim results from copyist's oversight in GC.

b. 123

composition: Op. 38, Ballade in F major

Slur from a in A (→GC,EE)

Slur from b in FE & GE1

Slur from g in GE2 (→GE3)
..

The earlier start of slur in FE results from misunderstanding the notation in A, otherwise quite clear at this place. A similar inaccuracy in GE is more justified by the mutual relations between the slur and notes in GC which served as Stichvorlage. The retouch of the beginning of slur introduced in GE2 (→GE3) aimed at clarifying the voice-leading.
