No witness list recorded beyond the primary source.
Proofread against the source text.
Proofread against the scan/OCR witness (Internet Archive conferencereport1927a); moved the calling caption out of the body into calling metadata, supplied a real title, restored the preceding choir notice as session-business lead-in, removed running-head bleed ('ELDER J. GOLDEN KIMBALL', 'GENERAL CONEERENCE').
Collated word-by-word against the original scan.
Heavyweight pass: authoritative source URL verified against conferencereport1927a djvu OCR (IA file conferencereport981chur_djvu.txt); confirmed this is J. Golden Kimball's address in the First Overflow Meeting, immediately after Eugene J. Neff's address. Restored the choir notice ('A male chorus from the choir sang, "Rock of my refuge."') that directly precedes Kimball's talk header in the scan, moved here from the tail of the Neff file where it had been misplaced as part of Neff's own discourse. Removed running-head bleed mid-paragraph ('ELDER J. GOLDEN KIMBALL' twice) and fixed the OCR-garbled running head 'GENERAL CONEERENCE' (removed as running-head bleed, not a body heading). Set calling_at_time to 'First Council of Seventy' (was generic 'General Authority'); set session to 'First Overflow Meeting' and date to 1927-04-03 (exact). source_url page anchor derived from the item's own page_numbers.json leaf map (printed page 53 = leaf n55).
