    Source derived from the event's own title: "Neville lectures on the Russian boy's story around 1953"
    Reasoning The event held NO date claim of any kind; its own title states 1953 (year precision, parsed as "year only"). ⚠ A title in this corpus is a DERIVED artefact — an earlier pass wrote it from the passage text — so this claim is title-derived and is marked as such rather than cited as a source document; the underlying text remains the real evidence and would supersede it. Confidence `probable`, never `certain`, for that reason. Precision is never inflated beyond the title's own wording. CALIBRATION (run v1.1/l1.4/titledate, against the 489 events that already hold an independent preferred date): day 96.1%, month 94.1% agreement. Titles naming a REFERENCE event rather than the event itself ("before", "after", "during the week of", "per ... lecture") are refused outright and never reach this write — reading an anchor as the date is the same laundering phase3b committed when it wrote telling dates onto events.

    Source Seek the Kingdom ¶28passage 537713 (lecture nid 1344, 'Seek the Kingdom'), 'When I told that story in this city years ago, oh, maybe fifteen years ago...'
    Reasoning The current lecture is dated 1968-03-29 (certain); Neville recalls telling the same Russian-boy story in this city 'maybe fifteen years ago', which arithmetically lands around 1953 (1968 minus ~15). The hedge 'maybe' and the decades-later recall of an interval, not a date, keep this at circa/possible; it corroborates but does not sharpen the existing title-derived 1953-??-?? probable claim. Two prior npr rows on this event already note the specific 1953 lecture cannot be identified from the witness alone.
