Proofread against the source text.
Proofread against the official/CHL/JSP source plus scan/OCR witness; body confirmed against the IA scan, no changes needed.
Collated word-by-word against the original scan.
Heavyweight pass: confirmed JD 12:1-3 citation against indexes/jod-page-index.json and the Weebly page's own bibliography (unchanged, already correct). Added session ("Monday Afternoon Session") and talk_order (2) confirmed against the Weebly page's own day-by-day agenda for the Thirty-Seventh Annual Conference. Body collated against the IA OCR scan of JD Volume 12 (badly degraded scan quality — this is the opening item of the volume). Opening ('SCHOOLS AND SCHOOL TEACHERS-TITHING, ETC.') and closing ('...desirable consummation is my prayer, in the name of Jesus. Amen.,' OCR-garbled as 'consamma-tion' but unambiguous) confirmed verbatim; no truncation.
