Collated word-by-word against the original scan.
Heavyweight pass: verified source as the Church History Library-contributed Internet Archive scan conferencereport1961a (131st Annual Conference, held Apr 6, 8-9, 1961; IA metadata confirms CHL call no. M204.1 A1 1880, 1897-). Rebuilt page reading order from the scan's DjVu XML word-coordinate data (scripts/ingest/cr-reading-order.py) to safely resolve talk boundaries against the report's own session headers (FIRST/SECOND/THIRD DAY, MORNING/AFTERNOON MEETING, GENERAL PRIESTHOOD MEETING) and speaker headers. Confirmed session and exact date from the report's own dateline (Thursday Apr 6 = First Day, Saturday Apr 8 = Second Day plus the Saturday-evening General Priesthood Meeting, Sunday Apr 9 = Third Day; there was no Friday session this conference); corrected date_precision from month to exact and added the session field (both were previously unset, this row was stale-marked '(in progress)' from an abandoned prior claim). Added a page-anchored source_url (leaf n125 of conferencereport1961a) in place of the bare item link. Corrected speaker attribution: the printed report's running head reads 'ELDER HENRY D. TAYLOR' (garbled by OCR to 'ELDER HENR' and left in the speaker field as the placeholder 'Henr'). Corrected speaker/speaker_id/id/filename to Henry D. Taylor.
