Charles W. Nibley · 1911 April General Conference · 1911-04-07
Transcribed from the OCR of the official printed Conference Report published by the Deseret News and hosted at the Internet Archive (conferencereport1911a). Running heads, page numbers, and line-break hyphenation removed.
No witness list recorded beyond the primary source.
Proofread against the source text.
Heavyweight pass: corrected truncated title, trailing period in speaker name, generic calling_at_time, and session; OCR letter errors fixed including a scrambled two-column-interleaving sentence.
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) and confirmed the source_url leaf (n54) is correct. Fixed the truncated title, removed a stray trailing period from the speaker name, corrected the session (this talk falls in the same afternoon session as the immediately preceding Whitney address), and set the actual calling_at_time (Presiding Bishop). Fixed roughly ten OCR letter errors (hurrv/todav -> hurry/today, gre^t -> great, Latterday -> Latter-day [x2], on*the -> on the, and a stray 'resurrection' quote mark). Reordered one sentence scrambled by a two-column-layout interleaving defect ('It is scarcely worth while, except to refer to associamention any other churches, tions of individuals or societies, to' -> 'It is scarcely worth while, except to mention any other churches, to refer to associations of individuals or societies, to') -- all words are present in the scan, only their order was corrected; the sentence trails off unfinished in the original print itself before the next paragraph begins, which was preserved verbatim. Confirmed boundaries clean: begins with Nibley's own remarks, ends at his own Amen. 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.
