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; removed printed synopsis line; 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 31. Removed the printed synopsis line. Corrected fidelity_notes conference ordinal (Seventy-Seventh -> Seventy-Eighth). Fixed roughly 15 OCR letter errors and stray punctuation (we' are -> we are, a stray asterisk removed, the- -> the, thing's -> things, allpowerful -> all-powerful, Creater -> Creator, large ly -> largely, sav -> say, wrought,and -> wrought, and, a stray slash fixed to a comma, testimony,without -> testimony, without, a stray bullet removed, that_has -> that has). Confirmed the New Testament quotations are transcribed accurately. Confirmed boundaries clean: begins with Smith own remarks, ends at his Amen followed by the genuine trailing session note (Millie Williams solo).
