B. H. Roberts · 1897 October General Conference · 1897-10-06
Transcribed from the OCR of the official printed Conference Report of the Sixty-eighth Semi-Annual Conference (October 1897), scanned by the Church History Library and hosted at the Internet Archive (conferencereport1897sa). OCR was cleaned and corrected: running heads, page numbers, and line-break hyphenation removed; obvious OCR errors fixed. Not yet proofread page-by-page against the scan images, so minor residual OCR errors may remain (status: draft, pending review).
No witness list recorded beyond the primary source.
Proofread against the source text.
Light review: in-context proofread, 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: this file was truncated mid-sentence at 'But I have received that testimony.' Recovered the missing closing paragraph from the IA djvu OCR (conferencereport1897sa), removing the mid-sentence running head ('ELDER GEORGE REYNOLDS. 49') that had caused the truncation and appending the real ending through 'Amen.' Confirmed talk boundaries otherwise correct (date/session/talk_order). 0 QC ERRORs.
This is a living critical edition. If you find a transcription, metadata, or sourcing error in this talk, report it to the editors →Reports are collated against the page scan and land as corrections in the vault.
