Carruth CR 100 912 inventory item cr-100-912-0257. Scholarly re-transcription of George D. Watt's original Pitman shorthand report, catalogued at the Church History Library. MS 4534 box 4 disk 5 1866b images 108-116. Sermon in Journal of Discourses 11:273-282, extensively edited with parts omitted; not in CR 100 317. Transcribed by LaJean Purcell Carruth 24 November 2009. The transcription preserves Young's Mountain Meadows Massacre and Dr. Robinson murder remarks as taken down in shorthand, and Carruth flags a lengthy scripture inserted by the Journal of Discourses at 11:273 with no basis in the shorthand. Recorded as a separate witness per docs/ingestion.md's Carruth policy; the printed Journal of Discourses 11:273-282 text stays preferred until this transcription is reviewed against it.
Ingested; not yet independently reviewed.
