John R. Winder · 1909 April General Conference · 1909-04-04
Transcribed from the OCR of the official printed Conference Report of the Seventy-Ninth Annual Conference (April 1909), hosted at the Internet Archive (conferencereport1909a). 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: OCR letter errors fixed.
Collated word-by-word against the original scan.
Heavyweight pass: proofread against the conferencereport1909a DjVu XML reading-order reconstruction. Fixed several OCR letter errors (delist -> delight, per.form -> perform, gbe -> give, vcise -> verse, rne -> me [inside a hymn quotation], hwe -> have) and a stray closing quote before 'morning'. Confirmed boundaries clean: begins with Winder's own remarks (no session-opening bleed, since that record was restored in the preceding smith-opening-address.md file), ends at his own Amen.
