The second and third L.H. crotchets are signalised with crotchet stems only in FCs. In the Chopinesque system of shortcuts, it generally indicates repetition of the most recently written-down note, in this case the C-c octave (other examples of such notation – see bar 3, 7-9, 17). However, sometimes similar lines/stems point to various notes, the identification of which was obvious for the writing person, e.g. in the Mazurka in F minor, Op. 63 No. 2, bar 42. Taking into account the fact that in the discussed place the stems on the 2nd and 3rd beats clearly differ in length, one could assume that – as long as the copy faithfully conveys this detail – Chopin signalised here a text compliant with the published version, hence a C-c octave and an F-c fifth.
