John Henry Smith · 1903 April General Conference · 1903-04-06
Transcribed from the OCR of the official printed Conference Report of the Seventy-Third Annual Conference (April 1903), hosted at the Internet Archive (conferencereport1903a). 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 conferencereport1903a (source_url page anchor confirmed). Removed a stray garbled topic-header fragment from the body start, and a large unrelated business-session record (sustaining of the General Authorities, Tabernacle choir officers, and Brigham Young Academy trustees) that had bled in after the real 'Amen' close -- that content belongs to the conference's business session, not to this talk. Remaining body matches the OCR witness verbatim.
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.
