Hugh B. Brown · 1960 April General Conference · 1960-04-03
OCR ingestion with auto-cleaning and paragraph reflowing, followed by a heavyweight page-by-page collation against the Internet Archive conferencereport1960a scan (leaves n52-n55). Boundaries, wording, and metadata verified against the primary source; archive snapshot of source_url still pending.
No witness list recorded beyond the primary source.
Proofread against the source text.
Light review: in-context proofread, running-header/page-number artifact removal, and OCR typo/spacing fixes. NOT a full page-by-page scan collation.
Collated word-by-word against the original scan.
Heavyweight pass: verified against the Internet Archive conferencereport1960a OCR (source verified, page-by-page collation done). Confirmed talk boundaries (follows Elder Alma Sonne and precedes President McKay's closing remarks for the session, in the Sunday, April 3 (Second Day) Afternoon Meeting, page 51-54/leaf n52-n55). Corrected date from placeholder 1960-04-01 to the exact date 1960-04-03, added session: Second Day Afternoon Meeting and talk_order: 4 (after Ivins, Christiansen, and Sonne in that session). Supplied a descriptive title reflecting the talk's subject (man's unique, Godlike status in the divine plan). No wording changes beyond cursor-agent's existing lightweight cleanup were needed; body text checked line-by-line against the scan and matches, including the Psalm 8, Genesis 1, and Dr. Henry Eyring quotations.
