I want to say:

> One person I told about XYZ said, "...".

Knowledgeably incorrect translation:

> XYZについて話した一人は「…」と言いました。

This makes it sound like they were the one telling me about XYZ. How do I
write this so that it's clear that they are the one being told? The only ways
I can think of makes it sound like they've had a moral offense committed
against them (話された), or that they really wanted to know what I told them
(話してもらった).

question
grammar
How do you express "the person I did something to"?
I'm pretty sure you can just add yourself at the start with が.

> 私がXYZについて話した一人は「…」と言いました
