Mr. John Costello, Assistant Treasurer
Daily Money Fund:(the trust)
Capital Reserves Portfolios: Money Market Portfolio, U.S.
Government Portfolio,
and Municipal Money Market Portfolio (the funds)
82 Devonshire Street
Boston, Massachusetts 02109
Dear Mr. Costello:
Daily Money Fund is a Delaware business trust created under the
name Daily Money Fund II under a written Trust Instrument dated
June 20, 1991. The name was changed to Daily Money Fund
pursuant to a Certificate of Amendment dated July 14, 1995. The
trust was supplemented with a supplemental trust instrument dated
March 31, 1997.
I am of the opinion that all legal requirements have been complied
with in the creation of the trust and that said trust is a duly
authorized and validly existing business trust under the laws of the
State of Delaware. In this regard, I have relied on the opinion of
Delaware counsel, Morris, Nichols, Arsht & Tunnell, contained in
a letter dated September 17, 1997 with respect to matters of
Delaware law.
I have conducted such legal and factual inquiry as I have deemed
necessary for the purpose of rendering this opinion.
Capitalized terms used herein, and not otherwise herein defined,
are used as defined in the Trust Instrument.
Under Article II, Section 2.01, of the Trust Instrument, the
beneficial interest in the Trust shall be divided into such
transferable Shares of one or more separate and distinct Series or
classes of a Series as the Trustees shall from time to time create
and establish. The number of Shares of each Series, and class
thereof, authorized thereunder is unlimited and each Share shall be
without par value and shall be fully paid and nonassessable.
Under Article II, Section 2.06, the Trust shall consist of one or
more Series and the Trustees of each Series shall have full power
and authority, in their sole discretion, and without obtaining any
prior authorization or vote of the Shareholders of any Series of the
trust to establish and designate (and to change in any manner) any
such Series of Shares with such preferences, voting powers, rights
and privileges as the trustees may from time to time determine, to
divide or combine the Shares into a greater or lesser number, to
classify or reclassify any issued Shares of any Series, and to take
such other action with respect to the Shares as the trustees may
deem desirable.
Under Article II, Section 2.07, the Trustees are empowered to
accept investments in the trust in cash or securities from such
persons and on such terms as they may from time to time
authorize. Such investments in the trust shall be credited to each
Shareholder's account in the form of full Shares at the Net Asset
Value per Share next determined after the investment is received;
provided, however, that the trustees may, in their sole discretion,
fix the initial Net Asset Value per share of the initial capital
contribution, impose a sales charge upon investments in the trust in
such manner and at such time as determined by the trustees, or
issue fractional shares.
By a vote adopted on June 20, 1991, the Board of Trustees
authorized the issue and sale, from time to time, of an unlimited
number of shares of beneficial interest of this fund in accordance
with the terms included in the then current Registration Statement
and subject to the limitations of the Trust Instrument and any
amendments thereto.
I understand from you that, pursuant to Rule 24f-2 under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, the trust has registered an
indefinite amount of shares of beneficial interest under the
Securities Act of 1933. I further understand that, pursuant to the
provisions of Rule 24f-2, the trust intends to file with the
Securities and Exchange Commission a Notice making definite the
registration of 10,782,620,254 shares of the trust (the "Shares")
sold in reliance upon Rule 24f-2 during the fiscal year ended July
31, 1997.
I am of the opinion that all necessary trust action precedent to the
issue of Shares has been duly taken, and that all the Shares were
legally and validly issued, and are fully paid and nonassessable
under Delaware law, subject to the possibility that a court might
not apply such law as described in the funds' Statements of
Additional Information under the heading "Shareholder and
Trustee Liability." In rendering this opinion, I rely on the
representation by the trust that it or its agents received
consideration for the Shares in accordance with the Trust
Instrument and I express no opinion as to compliance with the
Securities Act of 1933, the Investment Company Act of 1940, or
applicable state "Blue Sky" or securities laws in connection with
sales of the Shares.
I hereby consent to the filing of this opinion with the Securities and
Exchange Commission in connection with a Rule 24f-2 Notice
which you are about to file under the 1940 Act with said
commission.
Very truly yours,
/s/Arthur S. Loring
Vice President - Legal

General Counsel

Re: Daily Money Fund
Dear Mr. Loring:
We have acted as special Delaware counsel to Daily Money Fund
(formerly named Daily Money Fund II), a Delaware business trust
(the "Trust"), in connection with certain matters relating to the
organization of the Trust and the issuance of Shares therein.
Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise herein defined are
used as defined in the Trust Instrument of the Trust dated June 20,
1991 (the "Governing Instrument").
In rendering this opinion, we have examined copies of the following
documents, each in the form provided to us: the Certificate of Trust
of the Trust dated as of June 20, 1991 and filed in the Office of the
Secretary of State of the State of Delaware (the "Recording Office")
on July 9, 1991 (the "Certificate"), as amended by a Certificate of
Amendment thereto filed in the Recording Office on July 18, 1995;
the Governing Instrument; the Bylaws of the Trust; minutes of a
meeting of the Board of Trustees of the Trust, dated June 20, 1991; a
Certificate of Secretary of the Trust, certifying as to the acceptance
by certain persons of their positions as trustees of the Trust; Post-
Effective Amendment No. 22 to the Trust's Registration Statement
on Form N-1A as filed with the Commission on September 28,
1993; and a certification of good standing of the Trust obtained as of
a recent date from the Recording Office. In such examinations, we
have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the conformity to
original documents of all documents submitted to us as copies or
drafts of documents to be executed, and the legal capacity of natural
persons to complete the execution of documents. We have further
assumed for the purpose of this opinion: (i) the due authorization,
execution and delivery by, or on behalf of, each of the parties thereto
of the above-referenced instruments, certificates and other
documents, and of all documents contemplated by the Governing
Instrument and applicable resolutions of the Trustees to be executed
by investors desiring to become Shareholders; (ii) the payment of
consideration for Shares, and the application of such consideration,
as provided in the Governing Instrument, and compliance with the
other terms, conditions and restrictions set forth in the Governing
Instrument and all applicable resolutions of the Trustees in
connection with the issuance of Shares (including, without
limitation, the taking of all appropriate action by the Trustees to
designate Series of Shares and the rights and preferences attributable
thereto as contemplated by the Governing Instrument); (iii) that
appropriate notation of the names and addresses of, the number of
Shares held by, and the consideration paid by, Shareholders will be
maintained in the appropriate registers and other books and records
of the Trust in connection with the issuance or transfer of Shares;
(iv) that no event has occurred subsequent to the filing of the
Certificate that would cause a termination or dissolution of the Trust
under Section 11.04 or Section 11.05 of the Governing Instrument;
(v) that the activities of the Trust have been and will be conducted in
accordance with the terms of the Governing Instrument and the
Delaware Act; and (vi) that each of the documents examined by us is
in full force and effect and has not been modified, supplemented or
otherwise amended. No opinion is expressed herein with respect to
the requirements of, or compliance with, federal or state securities or
blue sky laws. Further, we express no opinion on the sufficiency or
accuracy of any registration or offering documentation relating to the
Trust or the Shares. As to any facts material to our opinion, other
than those assumed, we have relied without independent
investigation on the above-referenced documents and on the
accuracy, as of the date hereof, of the matters therein contained.
Based on and subject to the foregoing, and limited in all respects to
matters of Delaware law, it is our opinion that:
1. The Trust is a duly organized and validly existing business
trust in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware.
2. The Shares, when issued to Shareholders in accordance with
the terms, conditions, requirements and procedures set forth in the
Governing Instrument, will constitute legally issued, fully paid and
non-assessable Shares of beneficial interest in the Trust.
3. Under the Delaware Act and the terms of the Governing
Instrument, each Shareholder of the Trust, in such capacity, will be
entitled to the same limitation of personal liability as that extended
to stockholders of private corporations for profit organized under the
general corporation law of the State of Delaware; provided, however,
that we express no opinion with respect to the liability of any
Shareholder who is, was or may become a named Trustee of the
Trust. Neither the existence nor exercise of the voting rights granted
to Shareholders under the Governing Instrument will, of itself, cause
a Shareholder to be deemed a trustee of the Trust under the Delaware
Act.
We understand that you wish to rely as to matters of Delaware law
on the opinion set forth above in connection with the rendering by
you of an opinion to be used as an Exhibit to a Rule 24f-2 filing to
be made by the Trust with the Commission, and we hereby consent
to such reliance. Except as provided in the foregoing sentence, the
opinion set forth above is expressed solely for the benefit of the
addressee hereof and may not be relied upon by any other person or
entity for any purpose without our prior written consent.
Sincerely,
/s/Morris,Nichols, Arsht & Tunnell
