  b. 38

No slur in AI & FE (→EE2)

Slur in GE

EE3 (→EE4)

In this case, the missing slur seems to be an inaccuracy of the notation of AI and FE (→EE2) – cf. the analogous slur in bars 34-35. The notation of bar 38 shows a number of possible potential inaccuracies of FE in the indications of dynamic nature (cf. the notes on the  hairpins and the accent).
