Slurs in A

Slur in GC (→GE) & FE

Slurs in EE
..

The bottom arms of the   hairpins written in A look like combined slurs, which misled both the copyist and the engraver of FE. The version of EE also results from a misunderstanding of the notation of A, although in this case it was rather the deletion of the abandoned version of bar 102 that contributed to the misunderstanding.

f1 in GC & GE1 (contextual interpretation), EE & GE2 (→GE3)

a1 in FE
..

FE has an a1 as the 3rd crotchet of the middle voice in the R.H. It is almost certainly the so-called Terzverschreibung error.
In GC (→GE1) the correct note is an f1. This patent error was corrected in GE2 (→GE3), EE also includes the correct version.
