{"value"=>"Delegates from Pennsylvania write that yesterday the resolution of Congress of the 14th inst. was sent by Mr. Dickson with an account of the receipt of $52,000 by the delegates, of which $13,000 was paid to the York and Cumberland County commissioners; the remainder, with $100,000 received this day, is for warded by the Sheriff of York County [William Rowan]; as the Superintendents are dismounted on the east side of the river, it might not have been so proper to apply to the usual place for a guard and convoy, and makes it more necessary for the Commissioners on the east side [of the Susquehannah] to exert themselves lest the army suffer."}
