A woman interrupts from the audience to recount that many years earlier, at an old church in New York City, she asked Neville about her son at sea in the service; he told her to let him hear good news of the son's deliverance, and after a day of imagining on George Washington's birthday she received word within four days that he was returning home on a luxury liner.
Date (happened)
before 29 March 1963
unresolved
before 29 March 1963
bound
Source
bound from the telling lecture nid 1092 (1963-03-29)
Reasoning
The event is told in the past tense in nid 1092, delivered 1963-03-29 (that claim's confidence: certain, preferred), so it had happened by that date. This is the same premise phase4 L6a and L4.5 rest on, stated at the precision the evidence actually supports rather than as a fabricated year. It replaces nothing: the 1900 placeholder row remains, lowered, as the record of what phase3b did. `bound` is never `preferred`, so this does not change what the event displays.
before 1900
bound · refuted
Why
pm-actor-525: refuted by the M7 dating pass (529; 525's readers, packet 004): Sentinel placeholder year, not a date: 'before 1900' is impossible for an event in Neville's own life (born 1905, in New York from 1922). The honest bound is the telling date.
Reasoning
v1.1/l0.5/retype/w1-conv: type stated -> bound. Convergence of the w1 pass, which split on this exact shape — 25 rows with the 1900 sentinel year and a vague relative note were judged `stated` while 5 identical rows were judged `bound`. The 1900 here is a placeholder meaning "unknown, sometime before the telling", not a date any source stated; Neville was born in 1905, so "before 1900" is not a coherent bound on his own recollections. A claim whose year is that sentinel cannot be `stated`. Note the year itself remains wrong and is out of scope for L0.5, which may touch only `type` and `preferred` — reported separately. Source note as recorded: ""Many years ago", told in You Can Forgive Sin (nid 1092)" || v1.1/l1.4/sentinel1900: year 1900 here is not a date. `corpus v1 / phase3b` emitted it as a placeholder for "unknown, sometime before the telling" whenever the speaker used a vague temporal phrase — this row's own source note is the phrase. The same sentinel was identified and converged on in run v1.1/l0.5/retype/w1-conv. It carried confidence `probable`, which no evidence supported. Lowered to `doubtful`; an honest `before 1963-03-29` bound is appended alongside from the telling lecture (nid 1092). Nothing deleted, no year invented.
