Heavyweight pass: verified against archive.org/details/conferencereport1912a (internal scan conferencereport821chur), leaves 58-59 (page/n58, running head 'PRESIDENT JOSEPH F. SMITH.'). Confirmed boundaries: a brief interjection from President Joseph F. Smith noting the anniversary of the Church's organization, then Elder Heber J. Grant's presentation of the full roster of General Authorities for the sustaining vote, then President Smith's remarks on Hyrum G. Smith's appointment as Presiding Patriarch (grandson, not son, of the late Patriarch John Smith); immediately before Elder B. H. Roberts's address. This is record_type: conference_record (a procedural sustaining vote and roster, not a discourse), not stamped as a Smith address in its own right despite the substantial closing remarks.
