Ingestion of a missing discourse (McKay's closing remarks, Third Day Afternoon Meeting, Easter Sunday) omitted from the earlier heavyweight pass over this conference. Rebuilt page reading order from conferencereport1958a's DjVu XML word-coordinate data (scripts/ingest/cr-reading-order.py); confirmed this is McKay speaking continuously as presiding officer immediately following Hugh B. Brown's testimony (already ingested as 1958-04-brown-my-dear-brethren-and-sisters-i-respond.md) through the conference's adjournment for six months. Elder Harold B. Lee's Easter sermon (already ingested as 1958-04-lee-now-upon-the-first-day-of-the.md, leaf n133) is a separate appendix entry printed after the adjournment notice and stenographer credits, not part of this closing session, and is correctly seated after this talk. De-hyphenated and reflowed against the scan text. Renumbered talk_order across all existing 1958-04 files to seat this address as the conference's closing talk, immediately before the Lee appendix entry, matching the 1956-10/1957-04/1962-04/1962-10/1969-10 precedent for reinserting missing McKay discourses.
