Four years ago Louise insisted on giving him a copy of a picture he had merely passed an opinion on, had a friend carry it out to him from New York on a business trip; he hung it two years, buried it in a closet, and when she asked for it back he gladly gave it up.

between 1966 and 1968
estimated · possible
Why
Corrects the existing stated/certain 1966 point, which treated a computed figure as directly stated and ignored the inheritance ceiling from the probable telling-year anchor; that claim is left standing, not altered.
Reasoning
Received circa 1966 ('four years ago' subtracted from the lecture's probable-confidence 1970 telling year) and returned circa 1968 (a second, chained 'about two years' hedge on top of the first); the whole receive-hang-bury-return episode named in the title spans that window, and two chained approximations on a probable-ceiling anchor cap the confidence at possible rather than certain.
c. 1966
stated · probable
Reasoning
Passage 553849, in lecture nid 2141 ('The Law Of Indentical Harvest'), has Neville say Louise 'insisted four years ago' when she gave him the copied picture. The lecture's own preferred delivery year is 1970, but that rests on a single unreviewed legacy claim (d0, probable) with no independent confirmation of the year itself (d1's Nov-Dec bound assumes the same 1970 rather than proving it), so the four-year offset is applied at year precision only: circa 1966.

estimated · probable
Reasoning
This anecdote is recounted within lecture nid 2141 ('The Law Of Indentical Harvest'). The lecture's preferred delivery year, 1970, rests on a single unreviewed legacy claim (probable, no independent corroboration of the year), so the telling is recorded at that year, probable confidence. || v1.1 type repair: written as `stated` by run v1.1/l4/actor417/8000-9999-b17, retyped `estimated` — the claim cites node 2141, not a passage, so it is this lane's inference rather than something Neville said in so many words (#2117).
