Collation history

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, n95) confirmed as correct IA item/era. Corrected speaker/speaker_id from split/letter-spaced garbled OCR fragments ('German E. Ells-' / '-W-O-R-T-H-') to 'German E. Ellsworth', confirmed by the body's own reference to 'My servant German E. Ellsworth'. Removed two mid-body running-head bleeds ('E. ELLSWORTH 95 / ELDER GERMAN' and 'ELDER GERMAN E. ELLSWORTH') that had split sentences. Set a clean supplied title from the body's own text. Fixed several OCR letter/punctuation errors ('breth- ren'->'brethren', stray apostrophes, '?s'->'is'). No independent re-fetch of the scan image was performed beyond confirming the IA item exists.
