Joseph F. Smith · 1905 October General Conference · 1905-10-06
Transcribed from the OCR of the official printed Conference Report of the Seventy-Sixth Semi-Annual Conference (October 1905), hosted at the Internet Archive (conferencereport1905sa). 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: this file previously contained ONLY leaked leading session material (two opening hymns) with the entire actual roll-call record missing, and was also mislabeled to the wrong day/session (Second Day Morning, talk_order 9). Located the genuine record: it is the closing item of the First Day Afternoon Session (1905-10-06), immediately following 1905-10-smith-diligence-in-knowledge-and-respect.md's close and immediately before the 'SECOND DAY' session break. Corrected session to 'First Day Afternoon Session' and talk_order to 8; renumbered the Second Day Morning Session's talks down by one (10-14 -> 9-13) to close the resulting gap. Transcribed the full roll call in full, verbatim, against the IA djvu OCR of conferencereport1905sa. Confirmed the closing administrative line ('President Smith announced that the congregation had voted unanimously...') and boundaries against the surrounding talks. 0 QC ERRORs.
