            Management's Discussion and Analysis
                 of  Financial Condition and
                    Results of Operations
                              
                              
     Total assets decreased approximately $10.9 million or
1.29% to $836.2 million at March 31, 1995 when compared to
the $847.1 million at December 31, 1994.  The decrease was
mainly due to a decline in the investment portfolio caused
by maturities of investments which were not reinvested.
Total loans remained constant at $581 million.  Total
deposits, the Corporation's primary source of funds remained
fairly constant, decreasing slightly from $699.1 million at
December 31, 1994 to $698.1 million at March 31, 1995.
However time deposits, because of increased interest rates
increased $11.6 million, which was offset by a decrease of
$13.7 million in interest bearing demand deposits.  Short
term borrowing, (sweep repurchase accounts) decreased $11.0
million mainly due to normal business cycle volatility.

     Shareholders' equity increased 3.12% or $2.5 million
from $80.1 million at December 31, 1994 to $82.6 million at
March 31, 1995.  Cash dividends increased $0.02 per share
from $0.15 at March 31, 1994 to $0.17 at March 31, 1995.

     Net income for the three months ended March 31, 1995
increased 27.27% or $626 thousand from $2.2 million ($0.69
per share) to $2.8 million ($0.89 per share) at March 31,
1995.  This increase was due mainly to an increase of $1.4
million net in interest income.

     Interest and fees on loans increased 10.53% or $1.2
million from $11.4 million at March 31, 1994 to $12.6
million at March 31 ,1995.  This change was due to prime
rate increases.  The prime rate increased from 6.25% at
March 31, 1994 to 9.00% at March 31, 1995.  Repricing of
adjustable rate real estate loans also contributed to the
increase.

     Interest on investment securities increased $1.2
million or 75.00% from $1.6 million at March 31, 1994 to
$2.8 million at March 31, 1995.  This increase is attributed
to increased yields and volume.

     Other interest income consists mainly of income
received on federal funds sold, which is the resulting daily
investment activity that can be volatile on both interest
yield and volume.  First quarter 1995 shows income of $88
thousand as compared to $38 thousand for first quarter ended
March 31, 1995.  The change was due to decreased average
balances offset by increased yields.

     Interest expense increased $1.1 million or 22.00% from
$5.0 million at March 31, 1994 to $6.1 million at March 31,
1995.  The increase was due to increased interest rates and
volume.

     The asset/liability management process continues with
its goal of providing stable, reliable earnings  through
varying interest rate environments.  Net interest income is
the amount by which interest income on earning assets
exceeds interest paid on interest bearing liabilities.  The
amount of net interest income is affected by changes in
interest rates, account balances or volume, and the mix of
earning assets and interest bearing liabilities.  First
quarter ended March 31, 1995 shows net interest income of
$9.4 million which is a $1.4 million or 17.50% increase over
the $8.0 million recorded for first quarter ended March 31,
1994.  A positive gap position is maintained on a cumulative basis 
at three months and longer.  Increases in net interest income were 
generated more by rate rather than volume because the net interest
spread for the first quarter of 1995 increased by 15 basis points and
the net interest margin increased by 36 basis points versus first quarter
1994 results.

The following demonstrates the aforementioned effects:

     Management believes the allowance for loan losses is
maintained at a level which is adequate to absorb potential
losses in the loan portfolio.  Management's methodology to
determine the adequacy of and the provisions to the
allowance considers specific credit reviews, past loan loss
experience, current economic conditions and trends, and the
volume, growth and composition of the loan portfolio.

     The allowance for loan losses is determined through a
quarterly evaluation of reserve adequacy which takes into
consideration the growth of the loan portfolio, the status
of past-due loans, current economic conditions, various
types of lending activity, policies, real estate and other
loan commitments, and significant change in the charge-off
activity.  Loans  are also reviewed for impairment based on
discounted cash flows using the loans initial effective
interest rate or the fair value of the collateral for
certain collateral dependent loans as provided for under FAS
114, which was adopted by the Corporation effective January
1, 1995.  Any of the above evaluation criteria may cause the
provision to fluctuate.  For the quarter ended March 31,
1995, the provision was $422 thousand and for the quarter
ended March 31, 1994, the provision was $645 thousand.

     Effective January 1, 1995, the Corporation adopted
Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 114,
"Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan."  Under
the new standard, the 1995 allowance for credit losses
related to loans that are identified for evaluation in
accordance with Statement 114 is based on discounted cash
flows using  the loan's initial effective interest rate or
the fair value of collateral for certain collateral
dependent loans.  Prior to 1995, the allowance for credit
losses related to these loans was based on undiscounted cash
flows or the fair value of the collateral for collateral
dependent loans.  At March 31, 1995 the recorded investment
in loans that are considered to be impaired under Statement
114 was $3.9 million (all of which were on a nonaccrual
basis); the related allowance for credit losses for those
loans is $479 thousand.  All loans considered impaired at
March 31, 1995 have an allowance for credit loss.  For the
three months ended March 31, 1995 the Corporation did not
recognize any interest income on those impaired loans.

     Generally, a loan (including a loan impaired under
Statement 114) is classified as nonaccrual and the accrual
of interest on such loan is discontinued when the
contractual payment of principal or interest has become 90
days due or management has serious doubts about the further
collectibility of principal or interest, even though the
loan is currently performing.  A loan may remain on accrual
status if it is in the process of collection and is either
guaranteed or well secured.  When a loan is placed on
nonaccrual status, unpaid interest credited to income in the
current year is reversed and unpaid interest accrued in
prior years is charged against "other expense."  Interest
received on nonaccrual loans generally is either applied
against principal or reported as interest income, according
to management's judgment as to the collectibility of
principal.  Generally, loans are restored to accrual status
when the obligation is brought current, has performed in
accordance with the contractual terms for a reasonable
periods of time and the ultimate collectibility of the total
contractual principal and interest is no longer in doubt.
Total cash basis and nonaccrual loans at March 31, 1995 are $7.1 million
and consist mainly of real estate related which have slowed
in performance due to local economic condition.  Cash basis and nonaccrual
loans at March 31, 1994 totaled $6.8 million.  For the
quarter ended March 31, 1995 nonaccrual loans resulted in
lost interest of $126 thousand as compared to $178 thousand
for the quarter ended March 31, 1994.

     As of March 31, 1995 the Corporation has approximately
$1.6 million of "Other Real Estate Owned" consisting of one
commercial property.  This amount is recorded in "Other
Assets" at the lower of cost or fair market value in the
accompanying consolidated balance sheets.  At March 31, 1995 the
Corporation had no material commitments to lend additional
funds with respect to nonperforming loans.  In management's
evaluation of the loan portfolio risks, any significant
future increases in nonperforming loans are dependent to a
large extent on the economic environment.

     At March 31, 1995 the reserve for loan losses is 1.49%
of total loans as compared to 1.53% at December 31, 1994.
The reason for the decrease was due to a charge-off of
approximately $600 thousand for one commercial property
during the first quarter of 1995.

     Other income which is non-interest related consists
mainly of general fee income, trust department commissions,
and other miscellaneous non-recurring types of income.
Since these types of income are not tied directly to volume
or rate structure, noticeable fluctuations may occur on a
quarterly basis.  For the first quarter ended March 31, 1995
other income remained constant with first quarter ended
March 31, 1994 at $1.5 million.

     Debt securities that the Corporation has both the positive intent and
ability to hold to maturity are carried at amortized cost.
All other debt securities and all marketable equity
securities are classified as available-for-sale or trading
and carried at fair value.  Unrealized holding gains and
losses on securities classified as available-for-sale are
carried as a separate component of shareholders equity.
Unrealized holding gains and losses on securities classified
as trading are reported in earnings.

     Other expenses make up the operation cost of the
Corporation, including but not limited to salaries and
benefits, equipment, data-processing and occupancy costs.
This category is usually referred to as noninterest expense
and receives ongoing management attention in an attempt to
contain and minimize the growth of the various expense
categories, while encouraging technological innovation in
conjunction with the expansion of the Corporation.  The
quarter ended March 31, 1995 totals $6.4 million which is
12.28% or $700 thousand more than the $5.7 million shown for
the same period in 1994.  The increase was mainly due to
normal salary and staff increases, and occupancy expenses
for two additional branch facilities opened since March 31,
1994, and a estimated $150 thousand provision for possible
market value adjustment of real estate owned based on annual
appraisal review.

     An income tax provision of $1.2 million is shown for
the quarter ended March 31, 1995 and $952 thousand for
quarter ended March 31, 1994.  Effective tax rates remained fairly
consistent at 30.6% and 30.5% respectively.
