A possible reading of   in A

Another reading of A

A possible interpretation of A

Another interpretation of A and GE2 (→GE3)

GE1 (→FE)

  in EE
..

The hairpins   in A may be read and interpreted in a number of ways. This is so because the beginning of the mark was drawn too vigorously and its ends are of unequal length. The versions of GE1 (→FE) and GE2 (→GE#) present two attempts to decipher the notation of A. The hairpins   in EE are probably a distorted accent.

b. 76

composition: Op. 24 No. 4, Mazurka in B♭ minor

A long accent in A

A short accent in GE

A short accent in FE

No accent in EE
..

The long accent over the minim b flat1 in A was written as a short one in GE. In FE it was placed under the note. In EE the accent is absent, as it was interpreted as   hairpins complementing the  hairpins from bar 75.
