This doesn't work for me yet. I imagine the {pe'vIl} by rights belongs
before the {net}, but even that sounds strained. I thought the meaning was
just
pe'vIl *Sheridan* luDISmoH 'e' lunID
or some such. It doesn't sound sensible to say that one person tried that
someone else do something. Or maybe a -meH clause is in order.

I was trying to say:
"They tried to force Sheridan to confess."
