Before Neville's December 1933 Barbados voyage, Abdullah told him that he would die but not surely die. Neville later understood this as the end of his seven-year ascetic regime: after returning, he resumed ordinary eating, drinking and married life.

Why
Derived from the relative phrase and the separately corroborated 1933 Barbados voyage chronology.
Reasoning
The passage places Abdullah's prophecy one day before Neville left for Barbados. Independent event chronology for the same voyage places departure around 1933-12-03/04, so 1933-12-03 is retained only as a circa/possible estimate rather than an asserted exact day.
Told / reported
4 November 1968
estimated
Reasoning
The passage belongs to lecture 1394, whose internal byline and catalogue claim independently establish delivery on 1968-11-04. This is a derived telling date, so its type is estimated.
