Proofread against the source text.
Proofread against the official Deseret News Conference Report OCR/scan witness (conferencereport1915a, internal file prefix conferencereport851chur); completed title, removed trailing running-head bleed, corrected date/session.
Collated word-by-word against the original scan.
Heavyweight pass: source URL/page anchor (n137) verified against word-coordinate reading-order reconstruction of the DjVu OCR; boundary confirmed as President Joseph F. Smith's Closing Address, following the Authorities Sustained record and preceding Patriarch Hyrum G. Smith's closing benediction, both in the Third Day Closing Session; date/session corrected from 1915-04-05/'Second Day Morning Session' to the true 1915-04-06/'Third Day Closing Session'; completed the truncated title from the source's own printed synopsis heading ('CLOSING ADDRESS. Knowledge of Gospel principles most essential for missionary service...'); removed a trailing 'PATRIARCH HYRUM G. SMITH.' running-head fragment that belongs only as the header of the next talk (talk_order 42), not appended to this one.
