Conference record · 1927 April General Conference · 1927-04-03
Session housekeeping and attendance record (not an individual discourse), transcribed from the OCR of the official printed Conference Report published by the Deseret News and hosted at the Internet Archive (conferencereport1927a). 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 scan/OCR witness (Internet Archive conferencereport1927a); restored the missing opening sentence naming the conference, date, and presiding officer; fixed OCR letter errors (Tzvelve->Twelve, GEXERAL->GENERAL).
Collated word-by-word against the original scan.
Heavyweight pass: authoritative source URL verified against conferencereport1927a djvu OCR (IA file conferencereport981chur_djvu.txt); reclassified from a misfiled 'Heber J. Grant Presided.' talk to record_type: conference_record, since this is opening business/attendance-roster material with no discourse content, matching the pattern used for the 1927-10 conference-record cleanup. Restored the opening sentence ('The Ninety-seventh Annual Conference...opened in the Tabernacle...on Sunday morning at 10 o'clock, April 3, 1927. President Heber J. Grant presided.') that had been dropped from the original ingest. Fixed OCR errors: 'Tzvelve' -> 'Twelve', 'GEXERAL CONFERENCE' -> 'GENERAL CONFERENCE' (running head, removed), footnote markers (*, dagger, double-dagger, section) normalized to plain text since the OCR glyphs were garbled. Set date to 1927-04-03 (exact, First Day) and session to 'First Day Morning Meeting' from the scan's own header.
