Joseph W. McMurrin · 1914 April General Conference · 1914-04-06
Transcribed from the OCR of the official printed Conference Report published by the Deseret News and hosted at the Internet Archive (conferencereport1914a). Running heads, page numbers, and line-break hyphenation removed.
No witness list recorded beyond the primary source.
Proofread against the source text.
Light review: in-context proofread, synopsis/session-artifact cleanup, and spacing fixes. NOT a full page-by-page scan collation.
Collated word-by-word against the original scan.
Heavyweight pass: verified against IA scan/OCR (conferencereport1914a leaves 114-117); fixed speaker, OCR-garbled as "Joseph W. M'Mtjerin" (running head confirms 'ELDER JOSEPH W. McMURRIN.'). MAJOR CORRECTION: this file had been wrongly cut off mid-sentence ('...possibility of ■iving souls here at home, that they'), and the separate file 1914-04-38-joseph-w-mcmurrin-remarks-38.md, filed as if a distinct talk, is actually the direct continuation of this same address ('may be alive to the opportunity that abounds...'). Merged file 38's content back in (no words were dropped at the join -- 'that they' + 'may be alive' reads as one continuous sentence) and fixed the garbled '■iving' to 'saving'; file 38 is being deleted as a duplicate/artifact rather than a real talk. Corrected date/session from Second Day Morning to the Closing Session (Tabernacle, 2 p.m., Monday April 6), continuing right after Wells. Confirmed the merged talk's closing 'Amen' intact. 0 QC ERRORs.
