Neville says his brother Lawrence, the one who left the bed to look for the wind and found the babe, was a doctor — as, he notes, Luke was.

Why
M7 dating pass (529; 525's readers, packet 009)
Reasoning
Passage 532337: the wind and the babe are the elements of the birth vision (compare 532366, told 1964-12-22); the brothers Cecil, Victor and Lawrence are the three men seen there. Neville's own dating of the skull birth ('Birth from Above') is 20 July 1959, at the Sir Francis Drake Hotel, San Francisco (chronology 874, 1274, 8963), and the description here is that vision.
before 1964
bound · possible
Reasoning
Qualifying passage ids [532337] belong to telling lecture nids [1179]. Each listed lecture contributes the selected safe envelope year 1964 (MAX of its non-refuted delivery years); 1964 is the MIN across telling lectures.
before 15 December 1964
bound
Why
Tightens the phase4 L6a envelope from before 1964 to before 1964-12-15.
Reasoning
L6a envelope tightened to the telling day of nid 1179 (certain delivery 1964-12-15); same premise, finer precision. The phase4 L6a bound on this event is `before 1964`, an envelope over delivery YEARS computed without reading text. Its premise is that the fact is true by the time it is told; on that same premise the DAY of the telling is a strictly better upper bound. Nothing is re-decided — the bound is stated to the precision the evidence always supported. The delivery claim for 1964-12-15 on nid 1179 is held at `certain` by the corpus, which is what carries this claim. #2274; the L6a row stands beside this one.
