Rudger Clawson · 1926 October General Conference · 1926-10-04
Transcribed from the OCR of the official printed Conference Report published by the Deseret News and hosted at the Internet Archive (conferencereport1926sa). Running heads, page numbers, and line-break hyphenation removed.
No witness list recorded beyond the primary source.
Proofread against the source text.
Proofread against the official/CHL/JSP source plus scan/OCR witness; trimmed a trailing running-head bleed ("ELDER GEORGE F. RICHARDS") that had been appended after the Amen, fixed OCR typos ("cf fire" to "of fire" in the Hebrews 11 quotation, "fwo" to "two"), corrected session/date.
Collated word-by-word against the original scan.
Heavyweight pass: authoritative source URL verified (archive.org conferencereport1926sa, page/n84); page-by-page collation against scan/OCR witness. Boundary defect found and fixed: the prior draft had the next speaker's running head, "ELDER GEORGE F. RICHARDS," bled into the end of the file after Clawson's closing "Amen" — trimmed, since Richards's actual address is a separate talk (talk_order 24). Talk opens directly under the PRESIDENT RUDGER CLAWSON running head, immediately after Elder Widtsoe's address, with no session business intervening. Session/date corrected from "First Day Afternoon Session" / 1926-10-01 (approximate) to "Second Day Morning Session" / 1926-10-04 (exact) per the OCR's "SECOND DAY / MORNING SESSION" header (Monday, October 4, 1926). Fixed OCR typos in the body.
