e3, more likely reading of A (→FE→GE1,EE2→EE3)

d3 in GE2 (→GE3→GE4→GE5) i EE4

In A the head of the note embraces the area of two notes, d3 and e3, which stems from the simplified probably hasty correction. In spite of this, in FE (→GE1,EE2→EE3) it was correctly interpreted as e3. However, the reviser of GE2 (→GE3→GE4→GE5) changed it to d3, which was accepted as legitimate also in EE4.
