Heavyweight pass: collated against the conferencereport1970a djvu OCR witness (leaves ~11688-12041, Fifth Session, Sunday afternoon, April 5 1970). Confirmed speaker introduced as 'Elder Theodore M. Burton, Assistant to the Council of the Twelve.' Removed bled-in running-head artifacts mid-paragraph ('GENERAL CONFERENCE Sunday, April 5' before 'Would it not be wise'; a stray 'Second Day' before 'When we take upon ourselves the name'), and stripped trailing material that did not belong to this talk (President Joseph Fielding Smith's introduction of the next speaker, Alma Sonne). Talk now ends at Burton's own '...in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.' Date corrected to 1970-04-05 (Fifth Session, Sunday afternoon); date_precision corrected to exact.
