David K. Udall · 1902 October General Conference · 1902-10-06
Transcribed from the OCR of the official printed Conference Report of the Seventy-Third Semi-Annual Conference (October 1902), hosted at the Internet Archive (conferencereport1902sa). OCR corrected by hand (running heads and line-break hyphenation removed, paragraphing restored, obvious OCR errors corrected). Not yet proofread line-by-line against page images. Grade reflects the officially published Conference Report.
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 djvu OCR of conferencereport1902sa; set source_url page anchor via IA search-inside. Restored a missing opening sentence and a half verbatim from the scan (the file previously began mid-sentence with a stray page number, '66 beautiful city of yours...', missing the real opening 'I desire the faith and prayers...'). Remaining body matches the OCR witness verbatim; closes at 'Amen' before the next speaker.
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.
