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 undated document

The answer is C,but i think the "facts above"could not support it well,S can gave the statement after 1765

I think C is right. 1. from arrest record, we can get : in 1739, S was peddling. 2. in some year undated, S said he has been peddling for 20 years. Then the undated year <=1759, of course < 1765

This problem is quite ridiculous, hehe~ But maybe the last way to use is to "rule out" the most obvious wrong answers~~
