Collation history

Proofread against the source text.

Heavyweight pass: the existing 1913-04-16-preach-and-receive-some-of-remarks-16.md file's body was wrong-sourced (October 1912 content). Created this file with the true April 5, 1913 Second Day Afternoon Session opening address from the dedicated conferencereport1913a scan, including the session's opening hymns and prayer. De-hyphenated and reflowed.

Collated word-by-word against the original scan.

Heavyweight pass: verified against archive.org/details/conferencereport1913a leaves 43-46 (page/n43, running head 'ELDER MILTON H. WELLING'). Confirmed boundaries: opens the Second Day Afternoon Session (2 p.m.) with the hymn 'Guide us, O Thou great Jehovah,' prayer by Elder Wm. T. Jack, and the hymn 'The Spirit of God like a fire is burning,' then '(President of Bear River Stake.) I believe, my brethren and sisters, some great men have said that one-third of an individual's character is formed before he comes into the world...' and ends '...is my prayer for each one in the name of Jesus. Amen.', followed immediately by William A. Hyde's address.
