The 2nd finger B flat suggests a slide. On the second beat, Bach writes a four-part chord, necessitating a trill on the open E string. Hellmesberger's solution means the G and B flat of the arpeggiation are both taken on the D string. Note. too, the move to 4th position, to make the last chord more comfortable and involving a slide from E to F.
