After a party in East Hampton given by a prominent New York judge who was promoting Bacardi rum, Neville, staying as a house guest with a friend, found himself that night standing on unfrozen water, slipped a very thin silver chain over the head of a goose the size of a swan, and was pulled all over the water while standing perfectly still.

before 1968
bound · possible
Reasoning
Qualifying passage ids [526158] belong to telling lecture nids [5]. Each listed lecture contributes the selected safe envelope year 1968 (MAX of its non-refuted delivery years); 1968 is the MIN across telling lectures.
before 24 May 1968
bound
Why
Tightens the phase4 L6a envelope from before 1968 to before 1968-05-24.
Reasoning
L6a envelope tightened to the telling day of nid 5 (certain delivery 1968-05-24); same premise, finer precision. The phase4 L6a bound on this event is `before 1968`, 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 1968-05-24 on nid 5 is held at `certain` by the corpus, which is what carries this claim. #2274; the L6a row stands beside this one.
c. 1948
estimated · probable
Why
M7 dating pass (529; 525's readers, packet 020)
Reasoning
Same vision as chronology event 15701 (giant goose pulls him across water, East Hampton, 1948); the passage has the goose, silver chain and water.
