Heber J. Grant · 1898 April General Conference · 1898-04-06
Transcribed from the OCR of the official printed Conference Report of the Sixty-eighth Annual Conference (April 1898), scanned by the Church History Library and hosted at the Internet Archive (conferencereport1898a). 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: collated against the IA djvu OCR (conferencereport1898a). Retitled from 'Keeping the Sabbath Holy' to 'The Need of Inspiration' -- the body has nothing to do with the Sabbath; it matches the printed subject list 'The need of inspiration--The true path of duty' word for word (immediately follows Lorenzo Snow's 1898-04-snow-eternal-progression.md), so the old title was simply a mismatch, not a different missing talk. Removed two mid-body page-number artifacts ('*5', '1 6' with a stray digit). Confirmed date/session/talk_order and the closing 'Amen' correct. 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.
