Collation history

Proofread against the source text.

Heavyweight pass: fixed trailing period on speaker name and generic calling_at_time; anchored source_url leaf, removed two running-head bleeds and a page-number artifact, and fixed OCR letter errors.

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 corrected the source_url leaf from an initial guess of n116 to the confirmed n115. Removed a stray page-number artifact ('1J6') and two running-head bleeds ('ELDER ANTHONY W. IV INS.' and 'ELDER ANTHONY W. 1V1NS.', both OCR-garbled mid-sentence repeats of the speaker's own name). Replaced the generic calling_at_time with Ivins's actual calling (Of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, since 1907) and removed the stray trailing period on the speaker name. Fixed several OCR letter errors (Latterday -> Latter-day [several], pari -> part, ralsehood -> falsehood, villifying -> vilifying, surfer -> suffer). Confirmed boundaries clean: begins with Ivins's own remarks (quoting Matthew 7:16-18), ends at his own Amen plus a trailing choir note ('The nations bow to Satan's thrall,' restored here after being found missing from both this file and the following talk).
