                         Report of Independent Auditors

To the Shareholders and
Board of Directors of
Advisor's Fund

In  planning  and  performing  our  audit  of the  financial  statements  of the
Advisor's Fund (the Fund) for the period from April 15, 1999 (inception) to July
31, 1999, we considered its internal control,  including control  activities for
safeguarding  securities,  in order to determine our auditing procedures for the
purpose of expressing our opinion on the financial statements and to comply with
the  requirement  of Form N-SAR and not to  provide  assurance  on the  internal
control.

The  management of the Fund is  responsible  for  establishing  and  maintaining
internal control. In fulfilling this responsibility,  estimates and judgments by
management  are  required to assess the expected  benefits and related  costs of
controls.  Generally,  controls  that are  relevant  to an audit  pertain to the
entity's objective of preparing financial  statements for external purposes that
are  fairly   presented  in  conformity  with  generally   accepted   accounting
principles.   Those  controls   include  the   safeguarding  of  assets  against
unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition.

Because of inherent  limitations in internal control,  errors or fraud may occur
and not be detected.  Also,  projection of any evaluation of internal control to
future periods is subject to the risk that it may become  inadequate  because of
changes in conditions or that the  effectiveness of the design and operation may
deteriorate.

Our consideration of internal control would not necessarily disclose all matters
in  internal   control  that  might  be  material   weaknesses  under  standards
established  by the  American  Institute  of  Certified  Public  Accountants.  A
material weakness is a condition in which the design or operation of one or more
of the specific internal control  components does not reduce to a relatively low
level the risk  that  errors  or fraud in  amounts  that  would be  material  in
relation to the financial statements being audited may occur and not be detected
within a timely  period by employees in the normal  course of  performing  their
assigned functions.  However, we noted no matters involving internal control and
its operation,  including controls for safeguarding securities, that we consider
to be material weaknesses as defined above at July 31, 1999.

This  report is  intended  solely  for the  information  and use of the Board of
Directors and management of the Fund and the Securities and Exchange  Commission
and is not  intended  to be and  should  not be used by anyone  other than these
specified parties.
