Oglethorpe, in September, 1739, proposed to Lt. Governor Bull of South Carolina that the two colonies join forces to attack St. Augustine and drive the Spanish threat from the Southeast once and for all. A lengthy debate between the two over the proposed cost of the expedition and its leadership ensued, and an agreement was not reached until April, 1740.
