Heavyweight pass: collated against the conferencereport1928sa djvu OCR witness (talk begins ~p. 60, Second Day Morning Meeting, Saturday, October 6, 1928, following John G. Allred; this was Whitney's own printed title, so title_supplied is false). This talk was never given its own file during ingestion -- it had been entirely absorbed into what is now 1928-10-18-john-g-allred-remarks-24.md (note the talk_order/remarks-number gap in the surrounding files: 22, 24, skipping 23). Extracted the full talk verbatim from the scan/OCR witness and created this file. Removed four bled-in 'ELDER ORSON F. WHITNEY' running-head artifacts mid-paragraph. Fixed numerous OCR typos: 'wc shall have' -> 'we shall have'; 'preaching the Gospe!' -> 'preaching the Gospel'; 'in the' Southern States' -> 'in the Southern States' (stray apostrophe); 'The ckmd-capt towers' -> 'The cloud-capt towers' (Shakespeare, The Tempest); 'Joseph knew God, ior he had seen him' -> 'Joseph knew God, for he had seen him'; 'The elements • are eternal' -> 'The elements are eternal' (stray bullet); 'in our first our spirit estate' -> 'in our first, our spirit estate' (restored a dropped comma for sense); 'one reverend .gentleman' -> 'one reverend gentleman'; 'famous; but. he did not know' -> 'famous; but he did not know'; 'the things I have learnecK to do here' -> 'the things I have learned to do here'. The talk has no closing 'Amen' in the source -- it ends on a hymn quotation, matching the OCR exactly; the next page begins President Grant's post-adjournment announcements, not another talk.
