Autobiographical memory recalled by Neville in his lectures. Year derived: age 6 + birth 1905 = 1911. Told 1 time (1968). Judged his own (not a retold third-party story) by the whose_age adjudication.
Date (happened)
between 19 February 1911 and 18 February 1914
unresolved
between 19 February 1911 and 18 February 1914
estimated · preferred
Why
Existing claim's end-year (1913) looks one year short if age eight is meant to run its full course; flagged, not altered.
Reasoning
Passage 542557 directly states the ages six, seven and eight. Using the corpus's certain birth-date anchor, the exact calendar span covered by those ages is 1911-02-19 to 1914-02-18 -- one year further than the existing year-only claim (1911..1913), which reads as simple year-arithmetic (1905+6, 1905+8) rather than birthday-exact bounds. This adds day-level precision the existing claim lacks rather than re-asserting it.

Why
Old 1968-12-15 told claim is not deleted; this new claim documents the contradiction.
Reasoning
The event's existing field_told claim (1968-12-15) rests on this same lecture but is contradicted by the lecture's own better-evidenced delivery date. Two independent sources -- the legacy catalogue claim #441 and the transcript's own chrome byline -- agree on 1968-05-06, while the 1968-12-15 catalogue claim (#503) was explicitly demoted in the lecture's own processing note as unsupported for this specific transcript. The corrected telling date is written beside the old one per the append-only rule.
