In the course of her researches, a historian recently found two documents mentioning the same person, Erich Schnitzler. One, dated May 3, 1739, is a record of Schnitzler’s arrest for peddling without a license. The second, undated, is a statement by Schnitzler asserting that he has been peddling off and on for 20 years.

The facts above best support which of the following conclusions?

(A) Schnitzler started peddling around 1719.

(B) Schnitzler was arrested repeatedly for peddling.

(C) The undated document was written before 1765.

(D) The arrest record was written after the undated document.

(E) The arrest record provides better evidence that Schnitzler peddled than does the updated document.

(A) Schnitzler started peddling around 1719. - We can't say for sure. He may have started before that as well.

(B) Schnitzler was arrested repeatedly for peddling. - Repeatedly...? - No idea

(C) The undated document was written before 1765. - 1739 was when he was arrested, so he must have been arrested +/- 20 years of this date as he states that he had been riding his bike on and off for 20 years. Not fully convinced but this remains after POE.

(D) The arrest record was written after the undated document. - We can't say definitely about the chronology.

(E) The arrest record provides better evidence that Schnitzler peddled than does the updated document. - No comparison can be made about the better evidance.
