Collation history

Proofread against the source text.

Proofread against the official/CHL/JSP source plus scan/OCR witness; corrected speaker (Elder John H. Taylor, President of the Northern States Mission, per the djvu OCR text and the printed index), session/date (Third Day Morning Meeting, April 5, 1927), and title (supplied).

Collated word-by-word against the original scan.

Heavyweight pass: verified against the conferencereport1927a djvu OCR full text (archive.org/download/conferencereport1927a/conferencereport981chur_djvu.txt), confirmed via the printed index entry "Taylor, Elder John H 120" and the in-text header "ELDER JOHN H. TAYLOR / President of the Northern States Mission" preceding this talk on p.120-121. Boundaries confirmed clean: preceded by Elder John G. Allred's remarks, followed by Elder Wm. R. Sloan's remarks, no adjacent session business bled in. Body text collated word-for-word against the OCR; removed a duplicated mid-body running head, reflowed page-break paragraph splits, and corrected clear scan-level letter-substitution typos ("clay"->"day", "Hook of Mormon"->"Book of Mormon", "Jand if jinen"->"and if men", "\\ e require"->"We require") with no change to wording or meaning.
