Heavyweight pass: confirmed JD 19:122-129 citation against indexes/jod-page-index.json (unchanged, already correct). Added session ("Sunday Afternoon Session") and talk_order (1) confirmed against the Weebly page's own day-by-day agenda for the Forty-Eighth Semi-Annual Conference (John Taylor's first conference presiding after Brigham Young's death). Checked for volume-crossing continuation markers — none found. Body length and closing "Amen" line confirmed against the Weebly raw-HTML transcript; no truncation.
