Proofread against the source text.
Proofread against the OCR/scan witness (Internet Archive conferencereport1927a); confirmed speaker and body text already matched the scan closely from the prior light review; corrected date, session, and calling_at_time fields.
Collated word-by-word against the original scan.
Heavyweight pass: page-by-page collation against the conferencereport1927a djvu OCR (conferencereport981chur_djvu.txt); confirmed speaker (Fred J. Tadje) via the printed running head 'ELDER FRED J. TADJE' recurring at each page break in this talk, and confirmed the talk immediately follows Elder Henry H. Rolapp's address (now 1927-04-47) with no adjacent-speaker or session-business bleed. Corrected source_url page anchor from a proportional estimate (n147) to the exact leaf n148 using the item's page_numbers.json leaf map (printed page 146 = leaf 148, leaf = printed page + 2, matching the pattern confirmed on 1927-04-44 through 1927-04-47). Corrected session from 'Second Day Morning Session' to 'Fourth Day Morning Meeting' and date from 1927-04-01/approximate to 1927-04-06/exact based on the printed 'FOURTH DAY / MORNING MEETING' header preceding this block. Corrected calling_at_time from the generic 'General Authority' placeholder to 'Mission President' with calling_source 'Former President of the Swiss-German Mission', matching the printed calling subhead, and supplied the title 'A Spiritual Feast: Four Years in the Swiss-German Mission' from the talk's own opening line and central theme rather than reusing the calling subhead as the title. Body text collated word-for-word against the OCR; fixed remaining OCR letter errors ('fulfiling'->'fulfilling', 'ampng'->'among', duplicate/garbled 'i Elder'->'Elder', stray '.sick'->'sick', 'wor,k'->'work', 'Chemjnitz'->'Chemnitz', 'neigh bors'->'neighbors', 'meeting's'->'meetings', 'Morm(ons;.'->'Mormons', 'kind,,'->'kind', 'overwhelm!'->'overwhelm', 'm,ay'->'may') and removed three mid-body running-head bleeds ('ELDER FRED J. TADJE' twice, and a leading stray quote mark before one). No text added beyond what the OCR supports; no content removed beyond running heads/page numbers.
