Seymour B. Young · 1912 October General Conference · 1912-10-05
Transcribed from the OCR of the official printed Conference Report published by the Deseret News and hosted at the Internet Archive (conferencereport1912sa). Running heads, page numbers, and line-break hyphenation removed.
No witness list recorded beyond the primary source.
Proofread against the source text.
Light review: in-context proofread, synopsis/session-artifact cleanup, and spacing fixes. NOT a full page-by-page scan collation.
Collated word-by-word against the original scan.
Heavyweight pass: verified against IA scan/OCR (conferencereport1912sa leaf 36). Fixed the speaker/id, badly OCR-garbled as 'Seymour B. Toting' (the leaf's own running head confirms 'ELDER SEYMOUR B. YOUNG', matching the First Council of Seventy roster in the conference's Authorities Present list); corrected calling punctuation. Corrected date/session from First Day Morning (Oct 4) to Second Day Morning (Oct 5), matching Roberts's talk immediately preceding it. Supplied a title from the talk's opening theme (the International Irrigation Congress). Confirmed opening and closing intact. 0 QC ERRORs.
