Hyrum M. Smith · 1906 April General Conference · 1906-04-08
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. One passage had text dropped by the same mid-ingestion attribution-stripping bug seen elsewhere in this conference, restored verbatim; extensive other OCR misreads corrected against the witness. 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.
Collated word-by-word against the original scan.
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, and talk order. Restored a run of text dropped by a prior over-aggressive attribution-phrase strip ("President Smith, in which he said that"), and corrected a badly garbled 2 Timothy 3:6 quotation against the fixed KJV text, both verbatim/cross-checked against the witness. Removed a leaked page-number/running-head artifact mid-quotation and a trailing musical-number credit line (session-closing material, not part of the talk). Corrected extensive other OCR misreads and stray marks throughout (dozens of instances) verbatim against the witness.
