Proofread against the source text.

Heavyweight pass: this address by Charles W. Penrose did not exist as its own file in the prior ingest. Created from the dedicated conferencereport1913a scan, opening the Third Day. A short passage on leaf 63 of the scan is printed out of logical sequence (a sentence about a visitor demanding 'the keys of the Church' is interrupted mid-story by a paragraph break, with the resolution of the anecdote printed after an intervening sentence); reordered here into its evident intended sequence without adding or removing any words. De-hyphenated and reflowed.

Collated word-by-word against the original scan.

Heavyweight pass: verified against archive.org/details/conferencereport1913a leaves 56-65 (page/n56, running head 'PRESIDENT CHARLES W. PENROSE'). Confirmed boundaries: opens the Third Day (Sunday, April 6, 1913, 10 a.m., Tabernacle) after President Smith's announcement of overflow meetings, two hymns, and prayer by Elder Gustave A. Iverson, with the printed synopsis block ('"Mormons" of Third and Fourth Generations firm in the Faith...') followed by 'I feel that I am greatly privileged...' and ends '...God bless us all and help us all to be faithful, through Jesus Christ. Amen.', immediately before a brief interjection by President Joseph F. Smith (folded into Francis M. Lyman's talk file as session context) and Francis M. Lyman's address.
