check views). The text of the entry was as follows:
Did you know... that when Joachim Philip delivered an ultimatum to the British in
Grenada during
Fédon's rebellion, the militia had to restrain his sister, Susannah, who otherwise would have "torn him to pieces"?

... that when Joachim Philip delivered
Julien Fédon's ultimatum to the British in
St. George's, the militia had to restrain his sister, Susannah, who otherwise would have "torn him to pieces"? Source: "If the eyewitness testimony is to be believed, the most acute anger directed at Joachim Philip came, unsurprisingly, from his own family. His sister Susannah was furious. She flew at him in a rage and would have “torn him to pieces” had the militia not prevented her." (Candlin, Kit; Pybus, Cassandra (2018). Enterprising Women: Gender, Race, and Power in the Revolutionary Atlantic. Athens, GA: University of Georgia Press. ISBN 0-8203-5387-6.)

This article is new enough and long enough. The hook facts are cited inline and I prefer ALT1 which gives more context. The article is neutral, and I detected no copyright issues. A QPQ has been done. @
Guettarda: His sister is called "Suzanne" at first mention but later becomes "Susannah".

Thanks
Cwmhiraeth. Candlin used Suzanne in their 2012 source, but Candlin & Pybus used Susannah in the 2018 source. I'm inclined to follow the more recent source, especially since the first source mistook niece for a sister.
