Neville recalls that his own mother and father held strange and wonderful concepts of God, but always a God outside themselves to whom they turned.

Why
Tightens the older unsafe before-1969 envelope after the lecture date was adjudicated to 1963-02-05.
Reasoning
The whole passage recalls the parents' external-God belief in the past tense while comparing it with a current correspondent. Lecture nid 1710's surviving certain delivery date is 1963-02-05, so the belief being recalled happened before that telling day; the source does not support a more precise beginning or end.
before 1969
bound · possible
Reasoning
Qualifying passage ids [542599] belong to telling lecture nids [1710]. Each listed lecture contributes the selected safe envelope year 1969 (MAX of its non-refuted delivery years); 1969 is the MIN across telling lectures.

bound · probable
Why
M7 dating pass (529; 525's readers, packet 003)
Reasoning
The pattern concerns his mother and father together; his father died in 1959 (hist_event 5951), so it ended by then.

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 1710 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 1710 surviving (non-refuted) claim: 1963-2-5 at `certain`. All claims on the node: 1952-7-7 refuted; 1963-2-5 certain; 1969-8-8 refuted; 1963-2-5 certain (preferred). Superseded here: delta 0: 1969-08-08 at `certain` (run `corpus v1 / phase3b`).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.

stated · refuted
Reasoning
|| v1.1/l7/told-close: the delivery claim this was derived from (nid 1710, 1969-8-8) was refuted by the L7 adjudication (#2363). The corrected told claim from the same lecture stands at 1963-2-5. This row is retired rather than deleted so the derivation history remains readable.
