Collation history

Proofread against the source text.

Heavyweight pass: collated against conferencereport1927sa djvu OCR.

Collated word-by-word against the original scan.

Heavyweight pass: this file was ingested with the placeholder speaker 'Of The Palmyra Stake' rather than the actual speaker's name. Identified the true speaker as Henry A. Gardner, President of the Palmyra Stake of Zion, from a bled-in running-head fragment ('ELDER HENRY A. GARDNER') mid-paragraph (confirmed also by the speaker's own anecdote in which a friend addresses him as 'Brother Gardner'; not to be confused with Clarence Gardner, a different speaker earlier in this conference). Collated word-for-word against the conferencereport1927sa djvu OCR witness (Second Day Afternoon Meeting, Saturday, October 8, 1927). Corrected date from approximate to exact. Removed a bled-in running-head fragment ('114 GENERAL CONFERENCE'). Fixed OCR typos: '^mong the common people' -> 'among the common people'; 'as I com;e to these conferences' -> 'as I come to these conferences'; "taken just before' entering" -> 'taken just before entering'; 'We peed to have more family prayer' -> 'We need to have more family prayer'; 'those Hps attend' -> 'those lips attend'; 'earth Jwas the true church' -> 'earth was the true church'; 'to sing-\nthe song' -> 'to sing the song'; 'the /Church of God' -> 'the Church of God'; 'tells us jn a simple way' -> 'tells us in a simple way'; 'detrimental to our health- -1 wonder' -> 'detrimental to our health — I wonder'. Confirmed boundary: begins with the talk's opening words and ends with 'Amen.'
