				Independent Auditors' Report


The Board of Directors
Mellon Mortgage Company:


We have examined management's assertion about Mellon Mortgage Company's
(the Company) compliance with the minimum servicing standards set forth
in the Mortgage Bankers Association of America's (MBA) Uniform Single
Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers, as of and for the year ended
December 31, 1998, included in the accompanying Management Assertion
(Residential Mortgage Loan Servicing).  Management is responsible for
the Company's compliance with those minimum servicing standards.  Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on management's assertion about
the Company's compliance based on our examination.

Our examination was made in accordance with standards established by the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants and, accordingly,
included examining, on a test basis, evidence about the Company's
compliance with the minimum servicing standards and performing such other
procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances.  We believe
that our examination provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.  Our
examination does not provide a legal determination on the Company's
compliance with the minimum servicing standards.

In our opinion, management's assertion that Mellon Mortgage Company has
complied in all material respects with the aforementioned minimum
servicing standards, except minimum servicing standard I.1. related to
ensuring that all custodial and clearing accounts are reconciled on a
monthly basis and reconciling items are cleared in a timely manner in the
Denver Servicing Center, as of and for the year ended December 31, 1998,
is fairly stated, in all material respects.
