OCR ingestion with auto-cleaning and paragraph reflowing. Archive snapshot pending.
No witness list recorded beyond the primary source.
Proofread against the source text.
Proofread against the IA scan/OCR witness (conferencereport1970sa); fixed 'Mcconkie' casing to 'McConkie'.
Collated word-by-word against the original scan.
Heavyweight pass: collated against the conferencereport1970sa djvu OCR witness (Third Day session, speaker header 'Elder Bruce R. McConkie, Of the First Council of the Seventy'). Talk boundaries confirmed clean (begins 'I desire very much...' immediately after the speaker header, ends at McConkie's own 'Amen.' before the Tabernacle Choir/President Tanner bridge to Howard W. Hunter); no adjacent-speaker or session-business bleed found. Body text matches the OCR witness verbatim; only fixed the 'Mcconkie' surname casing and corrected calling_at_time to the OCR's exact byline 'First Council of the Seventy' (was generic 'Seventy'). No authoritative CHL catalog record found distinct from the IA item; source_url retained as the verified IA scan.
