OCR ingestion with auto-cleaning and paragraph reflowing. Archive snapshot pending.
No witness list recorded beyond the primary source.
Proofread against the source text.
Light review: in-context proofread, synopsis/session-artifact cleanup, and spacing fixes. NOT a full page-by-page scan collation.
Collated word-by-word against the original scan.
Heavyweight pass: collated against the conferencereport1970sa djvu OCR witness. Stripped trailing session-transition boilerplate (President Joseph Fielding Smith introducing Elder James A. Cullimore) that did not belong to this talk — Ashton's talk now ends at his own 'Amen.' Removed three bled-in running-head/page artifacts mid-sentence ('ELDER MAR\ V /. ASHTON 37', 'GENERAL CONFERENCE Friday, October 2', and 'First Day'). No authoritative CHL catalog record found distinct from the IA item; source_url retained as the verified IA scan.
