Charles H. Hart · 1909 October General Conference · 1909-10-06
Transcribed from the OCR of the official printed Conference Report of the Eightieth Semi-Annual Conference (October 1909), hosted at the Internet Archive (conferencereport1909sa). 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: split out from the end of 1909-10-wells-direction-of-spirit.md, where this address had been wrongly appended; corrected date metadata (Third Day was Oct 6, not Oct 5); OCR letter errors fixed.
Collated word-by-word against the original scan.
Heavyweight pass: this address was split out of 1909-10-wells-direction-of-spirit.md, where it had been wrongly appended after Wells's own Amen (running head 'EIDER CHARLES H. HART.', OCR misread of 'ELDER'). Reconstructed true reading order from the conferencereport1909sa DjVu XML word coordinates (scripts/ingest/cr-reading-order.py) to confirm the split point and anchor source_url leaf. Corrected the date field to 1909-10-06 (systematic Third Day date error present across this session's files). Fixed a few OCR letter errors (misionary -> missionary, 28 6 -> 28.6, held -> field). Editorial flag: the scripture citation 'Section 150 of the Doctrine and Covenants' is printed exactly that way in the 1909 source (verified against a fresh DjVu re-check); the quoted language actually corresponds to D&C 101:80, so this is likely a genuine error in the original volume (not an OCR misread) -- left verbatim per the no-reconstruction/no-silent-correction policy and flagged here for verification. talk_order 26 is shared with the preceding Wells file, since the two addresses occur back-to-back in the same afternoon session. Confirmed boundaries clean: begins with Hart's own remarks (the session's synopsis line and speaker header were dropped as session-artifact, consistent with vault convention), ends at his own Amen; a trailing musical-number notice was kept as genuine session record.
