{"value"=>"Governor of Pennsylvania. He is sending news from Oswego to Gov. Dinwiddie; deserters say the French will send 4,000 men to the Ohio settlements in the spring to build a stone fort there; the French have built a fort at Coos [Coos, N. H.]; the New York Assembly have voted only £1,000 for the Ohio expedition; they urge the great expense of the province in the late war, and the necessity of garrisoning Oswego and building forts to control the Six Nations; wishes Pennsylvania would join in the latter project; expects to see commissioners from most of the governments at Albany."}
