Neville abandons his seven-year discipline on the voyage from Barbados

Abdullah told Neville that he would have died by the time he returned from Barbados; Neville, then a strict vegetarian and celibate of seven years, kept his discipline in Barbados to his family's annoyance, and on the voyage north broke it entirely - the state of consciousness he had lived in died.

    Why No separate happening date is stated for the return voyage itself beyond following the outbound sailing, so no field_date claim is added.
    Reasoning Passage 556367 is Neville narrating, in the lecture itself, breaking his seven-year discipline on the voyage north from Barbados. The lecture's only delivery claim is a certain floor ('after 6 December 1933', the outbound sailing date); the telling date inherits that same bound and confidence.
