Rudger Clawson · 1913 October General Conference · 1913-10-05
Transcribed from the OCR of the official printed Conference Report published by the Deseret News and hosted at the Internet Archive (conferencereport1913sa). Running heads, page numbers, and line-break hyphenation removed.
No witness list recorded beyond the primary source.
Proofread against the source text.
Heavyweight pass fixed the speaker's name, OCR-garbled as "Ritdger Clawson" in the previous draft (the running head reads "ELDER RUDGER CLAWSON.", also OCR'd as "RUDGER CLAW SON" and "RITDGER CLAWSON" at different points from the same printed name). Corrected session/date from "First Day Afternoon Session"/1913-10-04 to "Second Day Morning Session (Overflow Meeting)"/1913-10-05: this talk was given at the overflow meeting in the Assembly Hall (see 1913-10-conference-record-session-notes-14), immediately after Arthur W. Horsley's talk. Removed a mid-body running-head bleed ("ELDER RUDGER CLAW SON."), de-hyphenated, reflowed paragraphs, fixed OCR errors ("Tt takes money"->"It takes money", "desstroy"->"destroy", "tithng"->"tithing", "sdhools"->"schools").
Collated word-by-word against the original scan.
Heavyweight pass: verified against archive.org/details/conferencereport1913sa leaves 53-59 (page/n52 through page/n58), page-by-page collation against the scan/OCR witness under the "ELDER RUDGER CLAWSON." running head. Confirmed boundary: opens with its own byline and printed synopsis ("ELDER RITDGER CLAWSON. The Lord everywhere present by His Spirit...", speaker name misprinted in the OCR of the synopsis line itself and corrected here) immediately after the anthem "The Lord of Heaven," and closes with "...which is my prayer, in the name of Jesus. Amen." immediately before the anthem "God is Love" and the benediction pronounced by Elder Ferdinand F. Hintze, which close the overflow meeting (session material, excluded from the body; see 1913-10-conference-record-session-notes-20 for the next session's opening).
