Neville meets Abdullah

Neville met Abdullah in 1929 in New York City and studied with him seven days a week for seven years thereafter.

Adjudication: Rows 0-2 are Neville's own first-person, mutually corroborating statements that he met Abdullah in 1929 (row 1 carries the most specific sourcing, a dated 1964 recollection); row 1 is preferred as the fullest first-person account. Row 3 ('Neville begins lecturing,' Feb 1930) is a different event entirely (not a competing date for meeting Abdullah) and appears mis-included in this group - it should be split out rather than adjudicated against the Abdullah-meeting rows.
