Heavyweight pass: verified against the Internet Archive conferencereport1960a OCR (source verified, page-by-page collation done). Confirmed talk boundaries — follows Bishop Thorpe B. Isaacson and precedes Elder Eldred G. Smith in the Monday, April 4 (Third Day) Morning Meeting, report pages 62-65. Corrected date from placeholder 1960-04-01 to exact 1960-04-04, added session: Third Day Morning Meeting and talk_order: 3. Corrected calling_at_time from generic 'Seventy' to the source's exact wording, 'First Council of the Seventy.' Talk is untitled in the source (a reflection on Columbus, the Pilgrims, and the Restoration); title_supplied: true retained, left filename/id unchanged since no confident short title could be derived without paraphrasing. Body text checked line-by-line against the scan and matches verbatim, including the Columbus, Nephi, and Brigham Young quotations.
