Heavyweight pass: verified source as the Church History Library-contributed Internet Archive scan conferencereport1969sa (139th Semi-Annual Conference, held Fri Oct 3 - Sun Oct 5, 1969). Rebuilt page reading order from the scan's DjVu XML word-coordinate data (scripts/ingest/cr-reading-order.py) and cross-checked every talk boundary against the report's own exhaustive back-of-book index (leaf n145-148), which lists every address with its own page range and sub-topic headings. As with the 1969 April conference, this conference's original ingest already had each of the 31 vault files corresponding to a single complete or near-complete talk, with no merging required; the defects found this pass were running-head OCR bleed into a handful of body openings (fixed) and several genuinely never-ingested addresses (flagged rather than fabricated). Confirmed session and exact date from the report's own dateline (Friday Oct 3 = First Day, Saturday Oct 4 = Second Day plus the Saturday-evening General Priesthood Meeting, Sunday Oct 5 = Third Day); corrected date_precision from month to exact and added the session field (both were previously unset). Added a page-anchored source_url (leaf n79 of conferencereport1969sa) in place of the bare item link. This is Elder Milton R. Hunter, distinct from Elder Howard W. Hunter's Third Day Morning address later in this conference. Editorial flag: Elder Bruce R. McConkie's address (index leaf n79-84, 'True religion revealed' through 'Valiant in testimony'), delivered shortly after this address, was never ingested into the vault at all.
