Neville announces that his friend Freedom, whom he persuaded some eight years ago to go do this work in San Francisco, visited him about ten days ago, and has agreed to come down from Cambria once a month at his own expense to speak free of charge at the Woman's University Club; Neville also had his wife pick 200 names from his 2,000-name list for Freedom's mailing.

Reasoning
Ten days before 1966-02-01 is 1966-01-22. The word about makes the result circa and caps confidence at probable.

Why
Lane L7 (#2354) re-derivation. Supersedes in substance, not in storage, the refuted-date told claim(s) on this event; those rows stand per append-only.
Reasoning
Re-derived, not walked down. The existing told claim(s) on this event took their date from a delivery claim on node 1236 that the corpus has since REFUTED, so the corpus was asserting that Neville told this on a day it separately says he did not lecture. That is a contradiction rather than an over-confidence, and lowering the confidence would have hidden it instead of resolving it. The refutation stands and the told claim is the wrong side of it. Node 1236 surviving (non-refuted) claim: 1966-2-1 at `certain`. All claims on the node: 1966-2-1 certain (preferred); 1967-1-16 refuted. Superseded here: delta 0: 1967-01-16 at `certain` (run `corpus v1 / phase3b`). The telling is dated by its lecture, so with the refuted date removed from consideration the surviving claim is what the telling inherits, at that claim own confidence and no higher.
16 January 1967
stated · refuted
Reasoning
|| v1.1/l7/told-close: the delivery claim this was derived from (nid 1236, 1967-1-16) was refuted by the L7 adjudication (#2363). The corrected told claim from the same lecture stands at 1966-2-1. This row is retired rather than deleted so the derivation history remains readable.
