  b. 67-69

Crotchet stems in A (→GE2) in bar 68

 No stems in GE1

Extended duration of d flat notes begins from bar 67 in FE (→EE)

In A, Chopin notated the extended values of d flat notes only in bar 68 (which was overlooked in GE1, and supplemented in #Wn2). In the proofing of FE (→EE) the composer added crotchet stems and dots to five notes, in the manner analogous to  bars 63-65.
