Proofread against the Internet Archive conferencereport1956sa scan/OCR; confirmed body text, date/session metadata, and talk boundaries against the surrounding running heads.
Collated word-by-word against the original scan.
Ingestion of a missing discourse (McKay's remarks on Aaronic Priesthood sacrament administration and Sabbath observance, General Priesthood Meeting) omitted from the earlier heavyweight pass over this conference. Rebuilt page reading order from conferencereport1956sa's DjVu XML word-coordinate data (scripts/ingest/cr-reading-order.py); confirmed this is McKay speaking immediately after Stephen L Richards's priesthood address (already ingested as 1956-10-richards-m-y-dear-brethren-president-mckay-has.md) and before further conducting/announcement remarks (excluded as non-discourse per docs/ingestion.md). De-hyphenated and reflowed against the scan text. Renumbered talk_order across all existing 1956-10 files to seat this address right after the existing Richards priesthood address, matching the 1962-04/1962-10/1969-10 precedent for reinserting missing McKay discourses.
