No witness list recorded beyond the primary source.
Proofread against the source text.
Proofread against the official/CHL/JSP source plus scan/OCR witness; corrected date to exact (1927-04-03), calling_at_time to 'First Counselor in the First Presidency', supplied a real title drawn from the address's own first subheading, and cleaned remaining OCR artifacts (spacing, running heads, hyphenation).
Collated word-by-word against the original scan.
Heavyweight pass: authoritative source URL verified (archive.org conferencereport1927a, printed pp. 19-25, anchored at n20); page-by-page collation against scan/OCR witness. Boundaries confirmed clean: begins at the 'PRESIDENT ANTHONY W. IVINS' heading immediately after President Heber J. Grant's address concludes ('...our Redeemer and Savior. Amen.' followed by the solo 'Come ye blessed,' sung by Jessie Evans -- correctly excluded from the body as session music bleed, not re-added) and ends at 'Amen.' immediately followed by the Telephone/radio-reception announcement and afternoon-session housekeeping that begins the next file (1927-04-05); no adjacent-speaker or session-business content bled in. Corrected date to exact 1927-04-03 and calling_at_time to 'First Counselor in the First Presidency' (Ivins's actual office, matching the convention used elsewhere in the vault, e.g. 1926-04-02-anthony-w-ivins-the-restored-church-of-christ.md); supplied the title 'Speak the Truth' from the address's own opening subheading (its Zechariah 8:16-17 text and stated theme) in place of the placeholder first-sentence title. Removed running heads ('PRESIDENT ANTHONY W. IVINS'/'PRESIDENT ANTHONY IV. IVINS'/'PRESIDENT ANTHONY IV. WINS', 'GENERAL CONFERENCE'), page numbers, and hyphenation breaks; fixed scattered OCR typos (e.g. 'befqre' -> 'before', 'nor.' -> 'not', 'conGENERAL CONFERENCEvictions' -> 'convictions'). No content invented; no text removed beyond running heads/page numbers/the adjacent solo notice.
