        This Amendment No. 2 to Schedule 13D is being filed on behalf of the
undersigned Reporting Person to amend the Schedule 13D filed with the Securities

amended, the "Schedule 13D") relating to shares of common stock, par value $1.00
per share (the "Shares") of The Seibels Bruce Group Inc., a South Carolina
corporation (the "Company"). Unless otherwise indicated, all capitalized terms
used herein but not defined herein shall have the same meanings as set forth in
the Schedule 13D.

ITEM 3.  SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION.

        Item 3 to the Schedule 13D is hereby amended, in pertinent part, as
follows:

        Since the date of Amendment No. 1 to the Schedule 13D, Charles H. Powers
has acquired 203,000 Shares which were purchased by Charles H. Powers for an
aggregate purchase price (excluding commission) of $821,285, which amount was
provided from his working capital.

        Since the date of Amendment No. 1 to the Schedule 13D, neither Walker
Powers, Jane Huggins, nor Rex Huggins have acquired any Shares.

ITEM 5.  INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

        Item 5 to Schedule 13D is hereby amended, in pertinent part, as follows:

        (a)-(b) As of the close of the business day on December 15, 1998,
Charles H. Powers directly owned in the aggregate 1,530,301 Shares, which
represents approximately 19.7% of the 7,774,852 Shares outstanding as of
November 6, 1998, as reported in the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for
the quarter ended September 30, 1998 (the "Outstanding Shares"). Charles H.
Powers has the sole power to vote or direct the vote of all the Shares, and the
sole power to dispose or to direct the disposition of 1,531,301 Shares and the
shares power to dispose or to direct the disposition of 562,500 Shares.

        By reason of the provisions of Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended (the "Act"), Mr. Charles H. Powers, Walker Powers, Jane
Huggins and Rex Huggins may be deemed to be a "group." By reason of the
provisions of Rule 13d-5 under the Act, the group consisting of these
individuals may be deemed to own all the Shares beneficially owned by Charles H.
Powers, Walker Powers, Jane Huggins and Rex Huggins. Mr. Charles H. Powers,
Walker Powers, Jane Huggins and Rex Huggins do not affirm the existence of such
a group and disclaim beneficial ownership of Shares directly held by each
individual.

        Except as set forth in this Item 5(a)-(b), each of the persons named in
this Item 5 (a)-(b) disclaims beneficial ownership of any Shares owned
beneficially or of record by any other person named in this Item 5 (a)-(b).

        Except as set forth herein, none of the Reporting Persons has effected
any transaction in the Shares during the past 60 days.
