Watt, MS 4534 box 6 disk 6 images 13-27. Sermon in Journal of Discourses 6:308; not in CR 100 317. Transcribed by LaJean Purcell Carruth 10 December 2021. The catalog page citation runs one page early: this Hyde discourse prints at Journal of Discourses 6:309-314, while 6:308 closes Brigham Young's Heirship sermon that Hyde opens by answering. Recorded as a separate witness per docs/ingestion.md's Carruth policy; the printed Journal of Discourses 6:309-314 text stays preferred until this transcription is reviewed against it.
