No witness list recorded beyond the primary source.
Proofread against the source text.
Proofread against the official Deseret News Conference Report OCR/scan witness (conferencereport1915a, internal file prefix conferencereport851chur); merged a wrongly-split second file back into this one, restored missing text, removed running-head bleed, corrected date/session.
Collated word-by-word against the original scan.
Heavyweight pass: found that this single continuous Callis address had been split into two files (talk_order 27 and 28) by an OCR running-head bleed ('...keep the commandments of God and disELDER CHARLES A. CALLIS. charge our duties...' -- 'dis-charge' was split mid-word by the running head). Merged talk_order 28 (1915-04-28-smith-that-he-had-been-to-u-t-a-h-h-e-s-a-i-d-p-r-e-s-i-d-e-n-t-s-m-i.md, whose id/title had been garbled letter-by-letter from a mis-parsed OCR line) back into this file and deleted it. Also restored a short missing sentence between the two halves ('President Smith that he had been to Utah, he said: "President Smith,"') recovered verbatim from the word-coordinate reading-order reconstruction of the DjVu OCR. Source URL/page anchor (n107) verified; boundary confirmed against preceding David O. McKay address and following Anthony W. Ivins address (Third Day); date/session corrected from 1915-04-04/'First Day Afternoon Session' to the true 1915-04-05/'Second Day Afternoon Session'. One short passage mid-talk remains genuinely unrecoverable from the OCR -- see heavyweight_review_blocker.
