A man in the audience told Neville on the Sunday night they both heard Freedom Barry how he imagined selling his house while still living in it, and then sold it for $65,000 cash with the right for himself and his mother to stay rent-free, all costs paid, until her death.

Why
The Tuesday weekday is consistent with the Tuesday/Friday lecture-night pattern noted elsewhere in this batch (events 6624, 6632) and with this lecture's own closing line 'Until Friday'.
Reasoning
The lecture recounting this story (nid 1240) has a catalogue-only delivery claim of 1966-02-22, which calendar arithmetic places on a Tuesday; taking 'Sunday night' as the most recent Sunday before a Tuesday telling gives 1966-02-20. Both the catalogue-only base date and the assumption of 'the most recent Sunday' add uncertainty beyond a single-layer estimate.

Reasoning
Neville recounts the gentleman's story to the audience within lecture nid 1240; its delivery date (1966-02-22) is the only witness available, and since it is catalogue-only it is treated as probable rather than certain here.
