USRC Surveyor
[edit]... that whether he was on land or sea, from 1775 to 1813, the Royal Navy couldn't resist attacking Samuel Travis?
*ALT1:... that, in 1775, the Royal Navy attacked Samuel Travis' house, then returned 37 years later and attacked his ship?- ALT2 ... that the Royal Navy attacked Samuel Travis' house in 1775, then returned 37 years later and attacked his ship (pictured)?

- Interesting:
- Other problems: - I like ALT1 better. ALT0 implies Travis was continuously attacked, which isn't the case. ALT1 isn't false, though, and it does technically meet all the criteria. But there's a minor grammar slip-up nagging at me, and I can't pinpoint it, so I'd go with this instead:
- ... that the Royal Navy attacked Samuel Travis' house in 1775, then returned 37 years later and attacked his ship?
