Dear Ms. Hirsh:
On behalf of Gold Banc Corporation, Inc. (the
"Company"), I am requesting a withdrawal of the Company's
registration statement on Form S-4, File No. 333-91559, filed on
November 23, 1999. The withdrawal is requested due to the fact
that unfavorable stock market conditions have precluded the
consummation of the merger for which the Form S-4 was filed. The
Company and Union Bankshares mutually agreed to terminate their
agreement to merge and publicly announced the termination on
March 17, 2000. None of the securities which were to be
registered by the above referenced Form S-4 were offered or sold.
If you have any questions, please call me at (816) 691-
3235.
Yours very truly,
/s/ Brent Salmons
