  b. 77

The version of FE of the R.H. rhythm is wrong – the tied e1 crotchet and the dotted e2 crotchet are placed over the 3rd and 4th L.H. crotchets; in addition, the dot prolonging the e1 minim was removed (one can see traces of it having been removed). Therefore, it is most likely that the reviser (engraver?), confused by the wrong arrangement of notes, adjusted the rhythmic values in the 1st half of the bar to that wrong arrangement. The versions of the remaining sources are correct.
