Heavyweight pass corrected session/date from "Second Day Morning Session"/1913-10-05 to "Third Day Afternoon Session (Closing Session)"/1913-10-06: this talk opens the Closing Session immediately after its opening hymns/prayer (see 1913-10-conference-record-session-notes-47). Removed a stray leading OCR artifact ("i" on its own line) and a mid-body running-head bleed ("ELDER REY L. PRATT."). Fixed OCR errors ("oft'-times"->"oft-times", "extereme wordliness"->"extreme worldliness", "dutes"->"duties", "hew"->"new", "tn"->"in", "thev"->"they").
Collated word-by-word against the original scan.
Heavyweight pass: verified against archive.org/details/conferencereport1913sa leaves 119-124 (page/n118 through page/n123), page-by-page collation against the scan/OCR witness under the "ELDER JAMES E. TALMAGE." running head. Confirmed boundary: opens with its own byline and printed synopsis immediately after the Closing Session's opening music/prayer, and closes with "...May the blessings of Israel's God be with Israel, in the name of Jesus. Amen." immediately before Rey L. Pratt's talk (see 1913-10-49).
