Fidelity

○Fragmentary

Preferred witness preserves conference minutes or a later narrative summary rather than full sermon transcripts; import remains fragmentary because discrete complete talks are not recoverable from the available text.

Witnesses

Does not preserve full sermon text.

Collation history

Proofread against the source text.

Light review: in-context proofread, encoding-artifact cleanup, synopsis/session-artifact cleanup, and spacing fixes. NOT a full page-by-page scan collation.

Collated word-by-word against the original scan.

Heavyweight pass: JSP source URL verified as Minutes, 7-8 April 1838, p.47 (single page). Text collated word-for-word against the JSP page transcript (fetched directly, not jod.mrm.org) -- exact match throughout, including the manuscript's own 'Boynto,n' comma placement. No missing or altered text found. Metadata confirmed accurate.
