Collation history

Proofread against the source text.

Heavyweight pass: corrected truncated title and trailing period in speaker name, anchored source_url leaf; OCR letter errors fixed.

Collated word-by-word against the original scan.

Heavyweight pass: reconstructed true reading order from the conferencereport1911a DjVu XML word coordinates (scripts/ingest/cr-reading-order.py) to anchor source_url leaf. Fixed the truncated title (the original synopsis fragment covered only the closing theme; retitled to reflect the talk's main subjects: eternal marriage, sins of omission, and the correct reading of Christ's teaching on divorce) and removed a stray trailing period from the speaker name. Fixed several OCR letter errors (Latterday -> Latter-day [several instances], lx>r& -> Lord, worldwill -> world will, congratlated -> congratulated, sav/awav -> say/away). Confirmed boundaries clean: begins with Penrose's own remarks, ends with the genuine trailing musical-number notice, kept as session record. Also corrected date and session, which had been systematically mislabeled First Day (1911-04-06) across roughly twenty 1911-04 files; the DjVu day headers (FIRST DAY at leaf 1, SECOND DAY at leaf 30, THIRD DAY at leaf 61) were used to reassign the correct day/session per file via its source_url leaf.
