Orson Hyde · 1862 October General Conference · 1862-10-07
Published in Journal of Discourses, Volume 10, pp. 70-75. Reported by J. V. Long in Pitman shorthand; the speaker did not review this text before publication. Text transcribed from the printed JD.
Pitman shorthand by J. V. Long; speaker did not review. BYU ContentDM's item-detail page currently fails to render in modern browsers (loads, then a client-side script redirects to the generic lib.byu.edu collections page; reproduced 2026-06-30, site-wide BYU bug, not link-format specific). Re-promote to preferred/source_url once BYU fixes this.
Page-anchored scan witness for Journal of Discourses volume 10, page 70. Currently the only reliably clickable link for this talk; BYU ContentDM is the institutionally preferred citation but its item pages are currently broken client-side (see the BYU witness note).
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: authoritative source verified (JD 10:70-75); BYU/IA page-anchored links already match indexes/jod-page-index.json. Body collated word-for-word against historicalgeneralconferences.weebly.com raw HTML (opening/closing lines and full text match; no truncation, no bleed-in). Confirmed distinct in full from this speaker's other October 1862 discourse, 'All Nationalities Merged in the Kingdom of God' (JD 10:112-113) — genuinely different content, no cross-duplication. Added missing source_archived_url (fresh Wayback capture of the Weebly witness page) to clear qc's missing_provenance check.
