Conference record · 1913 April General Conference · 1913-04-04
Session housekeeping notes closing the First Day Morning Session and opening the First Day Afternoon Session: a notice read by President Joseph F. Smith about the Church's correspondence/missionary classes, a notice about a choir concert, closing hymn and benediction, adjournment, then the afternoon session's opening hymn and prayer. Reclassified as record_type: conference_record; no individual sermon content was lost or removed.
No witness list recorded beyond the primary source.
Proofread against the source text.
Heavyweight pass replaced fabricated/misplaced content: the previous draft ('Conference was resumed at 2 p.m. ... Prayer was offered by Elder Joseph E. Robinson') does not appear anywhere in the OCR of this conference and did not belong in this slot. The true session-record material spans from the end of Anthon H. Lund's address through the close of the First Day Morning Session and the opening of the First Day Afternoon Session, immediately before Charles A. Callis's address.
Collated word-by-word against the original scan.
Heavyweight pass: verified against archive.org/details/conferencereport1913a leaves 12-13 (page/n12). This session record now correctly captures: (1) President Smith's notice about the Church correspondence school, (2) his notice about the Tabernacle Choir concert, (3) the closing hymn 'We thank Thee, O God, for a Prophet,' (4) benediction by Elder Andrew Kimball, (5) adjournment until 2 p.m., (6) the Afternoon Session opening hymn 'Praise to the man who communed with Jehovah,' and (7) the opening prayer offered by Elder Joseph R. Shepherd, followed by a further hymn, immediately before Charles A. Callis's address (President of the Southern States Mission) — which is not yet ingested as its own talk file in this conference; see the 1913-04 progress report for the list of talks missing from this conference's original ingest, including Callis's.
