  b. 68-69

No ties nor slur in As & AI

Ties & slur in A

Mistaken ties in FE

No b & mistaken slur in GE1op

Ties in GE1no2 (→GE2no2) & EEC

Mistaken slurs in EEW1 (→EEW2)

No b in GE2op (→GE3op)

In bar 68 and at the beginning of bar 69 all the autographs concord as to which L.H. notes should be struck. However, only in A Chopin notated the tied notes and a slur over the bass progression. FE notated erroneously a tie and a slur starting in bar 68 which ends the line in this edition. These errors resulted in no edition presenting the correct notation. Moreover, GE1op (→GE2op→GE3op) omitted the note b  at the beginning of bar 69.
