Neville recounts the moment of the offer: Victor, thinking it a joke, telephoned their father Joseph away from his lunch to hear the man repeat it, and the man said he needed only the two signatures.

bound
Why
Tightens the phase4 L6a envelope from before 1968 to before 1968-07-19.
Reasoning
L6a envelope tightened to the telling day of nid 60 (certain delivery 1968-07-19); 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 1968-07-19 on nid 60 is held at `certain` by the corpus, which is what carries this claim. #2274; the L6a row stands beside this one.

Reasoning
Passage 526804 tells Victor's phone call to their father Joseph on 'the day of the sale' of the family building. The database dates the same building story to 1920-22 (Victor imagines it, event 6861), 1922 (16231) and 1924 (acquired, 16283 and 15377). The offer falls between the imagining and the acquisition. Flag F0428 names 6861 as a duplicate candidate; not verified here.
