Heavyweight pass: collated word-for-word against the conferencereport1928a djvu OCR witness. Corrected session/date per the report's own index (page 113, following Brigham H. Roberts's page-106 address): Third Day Afternoon (Closing) Session, Easter Sunday, April 8, 1928, not the Second Day Morning Session as previously tagged. Corrected calling_at_time (Quorum of the Twelve) and fixed the title's missing apostrophe ('Zions' -> 'Zion's'). Removed a bled-in running-head fragment ('ELDER MELVIN J. BALLARD') left mid-sentence and a stray page-number fragment ('117') left mid-word. Fixed OCR typos: 'pf great worth' -> 'of great worth'; 'marry which' -> 'many which'; 'demoinstrate' -> 'demonstrate'; 'wo;rk' -> 'work'; a stray comma-apostrophe in "Latter-day Saints'" removed. Confirmed boundary: begins after the musical duet preceding this address and Brigham H. Roberts's talk, and ends with 'Amen.'
