b. 142

composition: Op. 22, Polonaise

..

There are no accidentals before the 4th and 8th semiquavers in FE (→EE,GE). The natural put before c4, the last note in the bar, proves that Chopin considered the  from before the 1st quaver of the bar to be valid up until this place, thus regarding the aforementioned notes as c2 and c3 (cf. a similar situation in b. 144). In accordance with the contemporary rules of chromatic orthography, we provide the discussed notes with sharps.

composition: Op. 22, Polonaise

..

The sources are lacking in the  before a1 at the beginning of the 2nd triplet and before a3 at the end of the bar. It is a consequence of the then rule of validity of accidentals in an octave resulting from the notation, and not from the actual pitch.
