Rudger Clawson · 1906 April General Conference · 1906-04-07
Heavyweight page-by-page collation against the Internet Archive scan/OCR of the official printed Conference Report of the Seventy-Sixth Annual Conference (conferencereport1906a). Talk boundary, exact session/date/order metadata, and source anchor checked against the report text (session confirmed by the "Saturday, April 7, 10 a.m." day header preceding it). Trailing choir/benediction session-closing material removed from the body; numerous OCR misreads corrected against the scan/OCR witness. One short OCR fragment ("upon the nil]?") could not be confidently resolved to a real word and was left as printed rather than guessed. Grade reflects the officially published Conference Report.
No witness list recorded beyond the primary source.
Proofread against the source text.
Proofread against the Internet Archive Conference Report scan/OCR witness; boundary, metadata, and OCR cleanup checked.

Heavyweight pass: authoritative IA Conference Report source verified (conferencereport1906a); page-by-page collation against the scan/OCR witness confirmed speaker, supplied title, exact date, session (confirmed via the 'Saturday, April 7, 10 a.m.' header), and talk order. Removed trailing choir-hymn and benediction session-closing material from the body. Corrected dozens of OCR misreads/artifacts verbatim against the witness (stray bullets/periods/spaces, Z. C. M. I. abbreviation periods, linancier->financier, Erigham->Brigham, Zkm->Zion, pur->our, jusi->just, Smithhave->Smith-have, etc.). Left one short OCR fragment ("upon the nil]?") unresolved rather than guess a word not confidently recoverable from the OCR text.
