         Whitney Holding Corporation (the "Registrant") is filing this Amendment
No. 1 to its Current Report on Form 8-K dated March 8, 1996 (the "Original
Report") for the purpose of filing the financial statements of the business
acquired and the pro forma financial information that were omitted from the 
Original Report as permitted by Items 7(a)(4) and 7(b)(2) of Form 8-K.
Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein have the meanings given to them
in the Original Report.

         Under cover of this Form 8-K/A, the Registrant is also publishing
certain post-Mergers combined results of operations as an Item 5 (Other Events)
disclosure.

Item 5:  Other Events

         As discussed in response to Item 2 of the Original Report, the
Registrant acquired First Citizens BancStock, Inc. ("Citizens") by a merger that
was consummated on March 8, 1996 (the "Merger").  In order to eliminate certain 
restrictions on the transfer of Whitney Common Stock by persons who may be
deemed to be either affiliates of the Registrant or former affiliates of
Citizens, the Registrant hereby publishes the following unaudited consolidated
financial results, which include more than 30 days of post-Merger combined
operations of the Registrant and Citizens.  The Merger was accounted for as a
pooling-of-interests.  As a result, the financial information for the period as
of and for the four months ended April 30, 1996 reflects the combined results of
operations of the Registrant and Citizens as if the Merger had been in effect
for the entire period.

          The consolidated statement of operations for the period shown includes
$2.27 million, after income tax effects, of expenses related to the merger.
Whitney Holding Corporation earned $10.96 million for the period, or $0.64 per
share, including these merger-related expenses.  Before merger-related expenses,
the Registrant earned $13.23 million for the period, or $0.78 per share.

                         Report of Independent Auditors


The Board of Directors
First Citizens BancStock, Inc.


We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of condition of First
Citizens BancStock, Inc. as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the related
consolidated statements of income, changes in shareholders' equity, and cash
flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1995. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our 
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain 
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the consolidated financial position of First Citizens
BancStock, Inc. at December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the consolidated results of
its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period
ended December 31, 1995 in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

As discussed in Notes 3 and 8 to the financial statements, in 1993 the Company 
changed its methods of accounting for securities and income taxes.

1. Significant Accounting Policies and Nature of Operations

Nature of Operations

First Citizens BancStock, Inc. (Company), through its wholly owned subsidiary,
The First National Bank in St. Mary Parish (Bank), operates seven branches in 
rural communities in south Louisiana. The Company also operates four branches
and a loan production office in two metropolitan cities in south Louisiana. The 
Company's primary source of revenue is providing loans to customers, who are 
predominantly small and middle-market businesses and middle income individuals.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of 
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and 
the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.

Proposed Merger

On September 28, 1995, the Company and the Bank entered into an Agreement and
Plan of Merger (Merger Agreement) with Whitney Holding Corporation (Whitney),
Whitney Acquisition Corporation (Acquisition) and Whitney National Bank 
(Whitney Bank) pursuant to which the Company would merge with Acquisition and
the Bank would merge with Whitney Bank. Upon the consummation of the mergers, 
each outstanding share of the Company's common stock (other than shares held by
dissenting shareholders, if any) would be converted into shares of Whitney
common stock.

Consummation of the transaction is subject to satisfaction or waiver of certain
conditions to closing specified in the Merger Agreement, including qualification
of the transaction as a tax-free reorganization, Whitney's ability to account 
for the transaction as a pooling of interests, registration under the Securities
Act of 1933 of the shares of Whitney common stock to be issued to the Company's 
shareholders, approval of the Company's shareholders, receipt of approval from
bank regulatory agencies, and other customary conditions to closing.

Consummation of the transaction is currently anticipated to occur in the first
quarter of 1996. The accompanying financial statements do not reflect the
anticipated effects of this transaction.

1. Significant Accounting Policies and Nature of Operations (continued)

Accounting Principles

The accounting principles followed by the Company and the methods of applying
those principles conform with generally accepted accounting principles generally
practiced within the banking industry. The significant accounting principles are
summarized below.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and
the Bank. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been 
eliminated in consolidation.

Securities

Management determines the appropriate classification of debt securities at the
time of purchase and reevaluates such designation as of each balance sheet date.
Debt securities are classified as held-to-maturity when the Company has the 
positive intent and ability to hold the securities to maturity.
Held-to-maturity securities are stated at amortized cost. Debt securities not
classified as held-to-maturity are classified as available-for-sale. Available-
for-sale securities are stated at fair value, with the unrealized gains and
losses, net of tax, reported as a separate component of shareholders' equity.

The amortized cost of debt securities classified as held-to-maturity or
available-for-sale is adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of
discounts to maturity, or in the case of mortgage-backed securities, over the 
estimated life of the security. Such amortization is included in interest income
from investments. Interest and dividends are included in interest income from
investments.  Realized gains and losses, and declines in value judged to be
other-than-temporary are included in other income. The cost of securities sold 
is based on the specific identification method.

Loans

Interest on loans is accrued daily on the outstanding principal balances except
for interest on discounted loans. Interest on discounted loans is recognized for
financial reporting purposes on the "Rule of 78s" method which does not 
materially differ from the interest method.



                                                            Page 13 of 39 Pages

             Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)


1. Significant Accounting Policies and Nature of Operations (continued)

The accrual of interest income is discontinued generally when a loan becomes 90 
days past due as to principal or interest. When interest accruals are
discontinued, interest credited to income in the current year is reversed, and
interest accrued in prior years is charged to the reserve for possible loan
losses. Management may elect to continue the accrual of interest when the
estimated net realizable value of collateral is sufficient to cover the 
principal balance and accrued interest and the loan is in the process of
collection, or in certain situations where management can reasonably expect to
recover the principal balance and accrued interest from guarantors of the loan.

Assets acquired through the default of loans are recorded at the lower of the
outstanding loan amounts plus accrued interest or the fair value of the assets
based on appraised value at the date acquired less estimated costs to sell. At
the time of acquisition, reductions from outstanding loan amounts to fair value
are charged against the reserve for possible loan losses.

Reserve for Possible Loan Losses

The reserve for possible loan losses is maintained at a level believed adequate
by management to absorb potential losses in the loan portfolio. Management's 
determination of the adequacy of the reserve is based on an evaluation of the
portfolio, past loan loss experience, current economic conditions, volume,
growth and composition of the loan portfolio, and other relevant factors. 
Additions to the reserve for possible loan losses arise from provisions for 
possible loan losses which are charged against income. On January 1, 1995, the 
Company adopted SFAS No. 114, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan.
In accordance with SFAS No. 114, the 1995 reserve for impaired loans is based
on the discounted cash flows using the specific loan's effective interest rate
or the fair value of the collateral for collateral-dependent loans.

Bank Premises and Equipment

Bank premises and equipment are stated at cost less allowances for depreciation
and amortization. Depreciation and amortization included in occupancy and 
equipment expenses are computed using either the straight-line or declining-
balance method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which generally
are 20-40 years for bank premises and 5-10 years for equipment.

             Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)


1. Significant Accounting Policies and Nature of Operations (continued)

Maintenance and repair costs are charged to operations; improvements are
capitalized. The cost of assets retired or otherwise disposed of and the
related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the accounts in the year 
of disposal and the resulting gains or losses are included in current
operations.

Federal Income Taxes

The Company uses the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under
this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on 
differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities 
and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that are expected
to be in effect when the differences are projected to reverse.

Fair Values of Financial Instruments

The Company discloses fair value information about financial instruments,
whether or not recognized in the balance sheet, for which it is practicable to 
estimate that value. In cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair
values are based on estimates using present value or other valuation techniques.
Those techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including
the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. In that regard, the
derived fair value estimates cannot be substantiated by comparison to
independent markets and, in many cases, could not be realized in immediate
settlement of the instrument.

Reclassifications

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 1995
financial statement presentation.

                                                     ============== ============

The Bank is required to maintain daily reserve balances with the Federal Reserve
Bank. The average daily reserve requirements were $1,382,000 in 1995 and 
$1,397,000 in 1994.

3. Securities

In May 1993, the FASB issued SFAS No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in
Debt and Equity Securities. As permitted under SFAS No. 115, the Company elected
to adopt the provisions of the new standard as of the end of 1993. As a result
of adopting the statement, the December 31,1993 balance of shareholders' equity
increased by $944,000 (net of tax of $486,000) to reflect the net unrealized 
gain on securities classified as available-for-sale.

4. Loans (continued)

In the ordinary course of business, the Bank makes loans to its directors and
officers, as well as to entities in which they have ownership interests. The
unpaid balances of these loans approximated $565,000 at December 31, 1995 and
$419,000 at December 31, 1994. During 1995, advances totaled $677,000 and
reductions and repayments totaled $531,000.

The Bank had loans totaling $549,000 and $205,000 at December 31, 1995 and 1994,
respectively, which were no longer accruing interest. The average balance of
nonaccrual loans was $399,000 in 1995 and $306,000 in 1994. Had these loans not
been placed in a nonaccrual status, the Bank would have earned interest of
approximately $74,000 during 1995 and $51,000 during 1994. The Bank recognized 
no interest income in 1995 or 1994 for interest payments received during those 
years on nonaccrual loans.

The nonaccrual loans referred to above excluded certain other nonaccrual loans
purchased in connection with the acquisition of a bank in October 1991. These
loans, net of discounts of $298,000 and $273,000, totaled approximately $539,000
and $598,000 at December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively.

5. Reserve for Possible Loan Losses

As discussed in Note 1, the Company adopted SFAS No. 114 effective at the
beginning of the year. The adoption of this statement did not have a material
impact on the provision for loan losses, nor the balance of the reserve for
possible loan losses. At December 31, 1995, the Company had $2,035,000 in loans 
that were considered to be impaired under SFAS No. 114 for which the related
reserve was $509,000. Interest payments received on impaired loans are applied
to principal if there is doubt as to the collectibility of the principal;
otherwise, these receipts are recorded as interest income.

The following is a summary of activity in the reserve for possible loan losses:

7. Employee Benefit Plan

The Bank has a retirement savings plan covering substantially all full-time 
employees over the age of 21 and with 6 months or more of service. The plan 
incorporates a deferred salary reduction arrangement under Internal Revenue Code
Section 401(k) and is intended to comply with all requirements for Section
401(a) tax qualified plans. Participating employees may contribute, through 
salary reduction, a maximum of 15% of their annual compensation to their
participant 401(k) accounts.

The Bank may contribute discretionary amounts to the plan as determined by the
board of directors. The Bank made contributions to the plan of $25,000 in 1995
and 1994.

8. Income Taxes

In February 1992, the FASB issued SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes.

adopting SFAS No. 109 as of January 1, 1993 decreased net income by $289,000.

10. Restrictions on Subsidiary Dividends, Loans or Advances

Dividends are paid by the Company from its assets which are provided primarily
by dividends from the Bank. However, certain restrictions exist regarding the
ability of the Bank to transfer funds to the Company in the form of cash
dividends, loans or advances. The approval of the Comptroller of the Currency is
required to pay dividends in excess of the Bank's earnings retained in the
current year plus retained net profits for the preceding two years. Beginning
January 1, 1996, the Bank has retained earnings of $21,255,000 of which
$3,778,000 was available for distribution to the Company as dividends without 
prior regulatory approval.

Under Federal Reserve regulations, the Bank also is limited as to the amount it
may loan to the Company. At December 31, 1995, the maximum amount available for
transfer from the Bank to the Company in the form of loans approximated 
$306,000.

12. Financial Instruments with Off-Balance-Sheet Risk

The Bank is a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the
normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These 
financial instruments include commitments to extend credit, letters of credit
and financial guarantees. Those instruments involve, to varying degrees,
elements of credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the statements of
condition. The contract or notional amounts of those instruments reflect the
extent of involvement the Bank has in particular classes of financial
instruments.

The Bank's exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other
party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit, letters of 
credit and financial guarantees written is represented by the contractual
notional amount of those instruments. The Bank uses the same credit policies in 
making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance-sheet
instruments. Unless noted otherwise, the Bank does not require collateral or
other security to support financial instruments with credit risk.

The Bank's off-balance-sheet financial instruments are summarized below. The
following contract or notional amounts approximate fair value as of that date.


                                                              December 31

Financial instruments whose contract amounts
   represent credit risk:
     Commitments to extend credit                       $  28,863    $  21,817
     Letters of credit and financial guarantees                             
       written                                                240          180


Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as
there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments 
generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may
require payment of a fee. Since a number of the commitments are expected to
expire without being drawn upon,the total commitment amounts do not necessarily
represent future cash requirements. The Bank evaluates each customer's 
creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if
deemed necessary by the Bank upon extension of credit, is based on management's
credit evaluation of the counterparty. Collateral held varies but may include
accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant, and equipment, and commercial
properties.

12. Financial Instruments with Off-Balance-Sheet Risk (continued)

Letters of credit and financial guarantees written are conditional commitments
issued by the Bank to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. 
Those guarantees are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing
arrangements, including commercial paper, bond financing, and similar
transactions.

The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same
as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. The Bank holds
marketable securities as collateral supporting those commitments for which
collateral is deemed necessary.

13. Shareholders' Equity

On September 27, 1994, the Company's board of directors declared a 10% stock 
dividend of the Company's common stock to the shareholders of record as of
October 14, 1994. All share and per share amounts appearing in the financial
statements and notes thereto have been restated to reflect the stock dividend.

The Company's 1993 Stock Option Plan, as amended, provides for the granting of 
options to purchase up to 55,000 shares of common stock to officers and key
employees selected by the board of directors. Options are exercisable in
installments, subject to continued employment and such other conditions as set 
forth by the committee. All options granted under the plan shall be granted at
an exercise price not less than the fair market value of a share of common stock
at the time the option is granted. The options for 55,000 shares granted during
1993 were granted at the fair market value at the date of grant.

Information relating to the Company's 1993 Stock Option Plan is summarized as
follows:

The Company's Non-Employee Director Stock Option Plan provides for the granting
of options to purchase up to a 100,000 shares of common stock to non-employee
directors. Options are exercisable subject to continued service as a director
and such other conditions as set forth by the committee. All options under the
plan shall be granted at an exercise price not less than the fair market value 
of a share of common stock at the time the option is granted. The options
granted during 1994 and 1995 were granted at the fair market value at the date
of grants.

Earnings per common and common equivalent share were computed by dividing net
income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and common
stock equivalents outstanding during the year. The number of common shares was
increased by the number of shares issuable on the exercise of options when the
market price of the common stock exceeds the exercise price of the
options. This increase in the number of common shares was reduced by the number
of common shares that are assumed to have been purchased with the proceeds from
the exercise of the options; those purchases were assumed to have been made at
the average price of the common stock during that part of the year when the
market price of the common stock exceeded the exercise price of the options.

13. Shareholders' Equity (continued)

Earnings per common share assuming full dilution for 1995 were determined on
the assumption that outstanding shares were increased as described above except
that purchases of common stock are assumed to have been made at the year-end
price as it exceeded the average market price for the year.

14. Significant Group Concentrations of Credit Risk

Most of the Company's business activity is with customers located within the 
southern region of the State of Louisiana. The Company grants commercial and
industrial, real estate, lease financing, credit card and installment loans.
Although the Company has a diversified loan portfolio, a substantial portion of
its debtors' ability to honor their contracts is dependent upon the oil and gas 
or related services industries.

15. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating its
fair value disclosures for financial instruments:

         Cash and Cash Equivalents: The carrying amounts reported in the balance
         sheet for cash and short-term instruments approximate those assets'
         fair values.
 
         Securities: Fair values for securities are based on quoted market
         prices, where available. If quoted market prices are not available,
         fair values are based on quoted market prices of comparable
         instruments.

         Loans: For variable-rate loans that reprice frequently and with no
         significant change in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying
         values. The fair value of fixed-rate loans (e.g., real estate loans 
         commercial and consumer), commercial and industrial loans, lease
         financing receivable, and loans to individuals) are estimated using
         discounted cash flow analyses, using interest rates currently being
         offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit
         quality. The carrying amount of accrued interest approximates its fair
         value.
 
         Deposits: The fair values disclosed for demand deposits (e.g., interest
         and noninterest checking, passbook savings, and certain types of money
         market accounts) are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on 
         demand at the reporting date (i.e., their carrying amounts).
         The carrying amounts for variable-rate,

15. Fair Value of Financial Instruments (continued)

         fixed-term money market accounts and certificates of deposit 
         approximate their fair values at the reporting date. Fair values for
         fixed-rate certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted
         cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being
         offered on certificates to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly
         maturities on time deposits.
 
         Off-Balance-Sheet Instruments: Fair values for the Company's
         off-balance-sheet instruments (financial guarantees, letters of credit
         and lending commitments) are based on fees currently charged to enter
         into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the
         agreements and the counterparties' credit standing.

The estimated fair values of the Company's financial instruments are as follows:

Item 7:  Financial Statements and Exhibits (continued)

         (b)      Pro Forma Financial Information

                            Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Financial Information

         The following unaudited pro forma combined financial information should
be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes
thereto of Citizens included elsewhere in this report and those of the 
Registrant previously filed with the Commission.  The pro forma information is
presented for illustrative purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of 
the operating results or financial position that would have occurred if the
mergers described in response to Item 2 of this Report (the "Mergers") had been
consummated in accordance with the assumptions set forth herein, nor is it 
necessarily indicative of future operating results or financial position.

         By reason of the Mergers, the Registrant issued to the former holders
of Citizens Common Stock shares of Whitney Common Stock having an aggregate
value at the date of the Mergers of $63,245,295.The number of shares of Whitney
Common Stock exchanged in the Company Merger was determined by the Average
Market Price of the Whitney Common Stock, as defined in the Plan of Merger, 
which was $31.1281 per share, resulting in the issuance of 2,031,775 shares of 
Whitney Common Stock for all of the outstanding shares of Citizens Common Stock
(an exchange ratio of 1.6406).  There is no stated par value of the Whitney
Common Stock.  In accordance with the pooling-of-interests method of accounting,
the historical equities of the merged companies are combined.  The historical 
earnings per share and weighted average shares outstanding amounts for Citizens
have been restated to reflect the equivalent shares of Whitney Common Stock
exchanged in the Company Merger. 

         The unaudited pro forma combined balance sheet at December 31, 1995,
set forth below, gives effect to the Mergers under the pooling-of-interests
accounting method as if the Mergers had occurred on December 31, 1995.  The
unaudited pro forma combined statements of income for the years ended December
31, 1995, 1994 and 1993 combine the historical statements of income of the 
Registrant and Citizens as if the Mergers had been effective as of January 1,
1993.  Merger-related expenses of $2.27 million (net of income tax) are not 
reflected in this accompanying Pro Forma financial statements for the period
ended December 31, 1995.  These merger costs were recognized in the
period ended March 31, 1996, as reflected in the Company's first quarter filing
on Form 10-Q.
