As in bars 110-114, the longer 
mark in FE may be authentic, added by Chopin to [FC] or at the stage of proofreading FE1. According to us, it is, however, unlikely that Chopin would have replaced the two accents visible in A with it, since the latter was probably added as part of corrections and additions after [FC] had been finished. This is indicated by the fact that the second accent is absent in FE in each of the two subsequent bars, which most probably means that Chopin added them to A later. Therefore, in the main text we give the A (→GE) version, probably resulting from Chopin's correction; a correction going beyond the one that found its way to FE at the composer's initiative.
