Ingestion of a missing discourse (McKay's closing remarks on the purpose of the Church perfecting the individual, Third Day Afternoon Meeting) omitted from the earlier heavyweight pass over this conference. Rebuilt page reading order from conferencereport1965a's DjVu XML word-coordinate data (scripts/ingest/cr-reading-order.py); confirmed this is McKay speaking immediately after Richard L. Evans's testimony (already ingested as 1965-04-evans-president-mckay-and-my-beloved-brethren-and.md) through the conference's adjournment, distinguishing it from a misOCR'd running head over the tail of Evans's own talk. Source leaf running head reads 'Tuesday, April 5, 1965,' evidently a one-day date error in the original print/OCR since the report's own dateline elsewhere confirms Third Day = Tuesday, April 6; date recorded here as April 6. De-hyphenated and reflowed against the scan text. Renumbered talk_order within this session to seat this as the seventh (last) talk, matching the session/talk_order schema already in use across this conference's other files, and the 1956-10/1957-04/1958-04/1958-10/1959-04/1959-10/1961-04/1961-10/1962-04/1962-10/1963-04/1963-10/1964-04/1969-10 precedent for reinserting missing McKay discourses generally.
