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: source_url (archive.org conferencereport1919a, n59) confirmed as correct IA item/era. No boundary contamination found; this is James E. Talmage's tribute to Joseph F. Smith, opening with a quotation from the Book of Abraham. Fixed numerous OCR letter errors ('nave'->'have', 'leader school'->'leader in school', 'fie'->'He', 'thev'->'they', 'nerson'->'person', a mis-split line break, 'Thece'->'There', 'crochets'->'prophets', 'miehtv'->'mighty', 'what-'->'what', 'an -occasion'->'an occasion', '<to'->'to', 'burt'->'but', 'righfteousness'->'righteousness', 'sac- rilege'->'sacrilege', 'Wis<t'->'Wist', capital 'Us'->'us'). No independent re-fetch of the scan image was performed beyond confirming the IA item exists.
