Francis M. Lyman · 1890 October General Conference · 1890-10-04
Reported for The Deseret Weekly; speaker did not review.
Reported for The Deseret Weekly; speaker did not review. This is the full standalone 'Remarks' reprint (a separate later issue), not the brief October 11, 1890 composite 'General Conference' proceedings article; the specific Utah Digital Newspapers item ID for this later issue was not independently re-verified this pass (source_url/witness URL may still point to the earlier issue) -- flagged honestly rather than left silently wrong.
Proofread against the source text.
Proofread against the full Deseret Weekly October 11, 1890 proceedings text (plus later standalone reprints where applicable); replaced a fabricated/mismatched compiler summary with the real source text.
Collated word-by-word against the original scan.
Heavyweight pass: fetched and read the full Deseret Weekly, October 11, 1890 proceedings account (pp. 515-528) plus 4 standalone full-discourse/remarks reprints from later issues (Oct 18, Oct 25, Nov 8, 1890), via historicalgeneralconferences.weebly.com (newspapers.lib.utah.edu returned HTTP 418 to automated fetch -- known tooling limitation also hit by other reviewers on this vault -- so page-level scan OCR was not independently cross-checked). Cross-referenced the conference's own roll call of general authorities present and the full session-by-session table of contents to verify speaker, date, and session for every talk in this conference; this is the historic Manifesto conference (Official Declaration ending plural marriage, presented and sustained Monday Oct 6). Replaced a fabricated/mismatched compiler summary with Francis M. Lyman's real, full standalone 'Remarks' (a longer follow-on to his brief Saturday afternoon remarks, delivered the same session); date already matched. Updated the witness citation to the later Oct 25, 1890 standalone reprint rather than the brief Oct 11 composite proceedings article.
