e1 in chords in #CFI

d1-e1 in A (→FC→GE) & FE2 (→EE)

d1 in FE1
..

In the earlier version recorded in FCI, attention is drawn to  the absence of d1 notes in the L.H. chords of the 2nd half of the bar and the allocation of the last e1 to the R.H. On the other hand the absence of e1 notes in those chords is very probably an oversight by the engraver of FE1. The mistake was corrected in FE2 (→EE).

No  in A (→FC→GE)

in FE (→EE)

The  mark added most probably by Fontana in the proofreading of FE (→EE) is almost certainly inauthentic. Chopin would intentionally omit  in the endings in a number of his pieces, cf., e.g. the Prelude in A major no. 7.
