Fingering written in FED, probable reading

No teaching fingering
..

In FED, there is a fingering digit added over the 1st quaver. Its interpretation poses difficulties, since it was most probably not corrected; it is probably a '4'. Due to this fact, we do not suggest it in the main text.

The missing mordent is most probably an oversight of both AI and GE1Db.

Originally, the part of the L.H. in this bar was a repetition of bar 10. Unlike in the previous bar, here one of the presentation autographs – AIII – already includes the final version. The version of AII is most probably Chopin's mistake.

In As some of the fragments of these bars are not written out with notes, which means repeating the text from the corresponding bars written out earlier.
