Joseph A. McRae · 1907 October General Conference · 1907-10-06
Transcribed from the OCR of the official printed Conference Report of the Seventy-Eighth Semi-Annual Conference (October 1907), hosted at the Internet Archive (conferencereport1907sa). 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.
Heavyweight pass: anchored source_url to page; corrected fidelity_notes conference ordinal; extensive OCR letter-error cleanup.
Collated word-by-word against the original scan.
Heavyweight pass: reconstructed true reading order from the conferencereport1907sa DjVu XML word coordinates (scripts/ingest/cr-reading-order.py). Resolved the bare_ia_source_link WARN: anchored source_url to leaf 76. Corrected fidelity_notes conference ordinal (Seventy-Seventh -> Seventy-Eighth). Fixed roughly a dozen OCR letter errors and stray punctuation (Peterjames -> Peter, James, thing's -> things, quarreling' -> quarreling, saying- -> saying, exerting- -> exerting, the' -> the, will, assemble -> will assemble, and other stray marks). Confirmed boundaries clean: begins with McRae own remarks, ends at his Amen with no trailing bleed.
