A woman wrote Neville that a voice told her that whenever David calls you Father you are as the Ancient of Days; Neville confirms it from his own experience, saying that when David called him Father he felt timeless and knew he was the very being of infinite love that embraced him, without losing his identity.

before 21 June 1968
bound
Why
Tightens the phase4 L6a envelope from before 1968 to before 1968-06-21.
Reasoning
L6a envelope tightened to the telling day of nid 1370 (certain delivery 1968-06-21); 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 1968-06-21 on nid 1370 is held at `certain` by the corpus, which is what carries this claim. #2274; the L6a row stands beside this one.
