Why
M7 dating pass (529; 525's readers, packet 019)
Reasoning
'When we go to New York City... we go year after year', a week's visit each time (passage 549409), implies he no longer lived there; frame residence 20465 ends 1957-04.
before 1968
bound · possible
Reasoning
Qualifying passage ids [549409] belong to telling lecture nids [1935]. Each listed lecture contributes the selected safe envelope year 1968 (MAX of its non-refuted delivery years); 1968 is the MIN across telling lectures.
before 1 April 1968
bound
Why
Tightens the phase4 L6a envelope from before 1968 to before 1968-04-01.
Reasoning
L6a envelope tightened to the telling day of nid 1935 (certain delivery 1968-04-01); 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 1968-04-01 on nid 1935 is held at `certain` by the corpus, which is what carries this claim. #2274; the L6a row stands beside this one.
Told / reported

Reasoning
Passage 549409 is Neville himself describing, in first person, his recurring visits to Sam and Sissy in New York and being asked to say grace at their table; this is the telling. The lecture containing it, nid 1935, is dated 1968-04-01 by its sole delivery claim (exact/certain, from the title dateline and independently corroborated by an internal Good-Friday reference). The telling inherits that same precision and confidence.
