Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
($ in thousands)
Note 1 - General
The consolidated financial statements conform to generally accepted 
accounting principles and to general industry practices.  The 
accompanying consolidated financial statements are unaudited.  In the 
opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation 
of the consolidated financial statements have been included.  All such 
adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature.  The notes included 
herein should be read in conjunction with the notes to consolidated 
financial statements included in the Corporation's 1994 Annual Report to 
shareholders.

On January 1, 1995, the Corporation adopted Statement of Financial 
Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 114, Accounting by Creditors for 
Impairment of a Loan, as amended by SFAS 118. The Statement requires 
impaired loans to be measured at the present value of expected future 
cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate, except 
that all collateral-dependent loans are measured for impairment based on 
the fair value of the collateral.  Management's evaluation of the 
adequacy of the allowance is based on a review of the Corporation's 
historical loss experience, known and inherent risks in the loan 
portfolio, charge-offs, and the level and trend of interest rates.  As 
a result, the allowance for loan losses is adequate, and no 
additional provision results from the implementation of Statement 114.

On January 1, 1995, the Corporation adopted Statement of Financial 
Accounting Standard No. 114, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a 
Loan.  Information concerning this statement and its effects on the 
Consolidated Financial Statements is included in Note 1 of the Notes to 
Consolidated Financial Statements.

In June 1995, the Corporation completed the acquisition of deposits 
from two other financial institutions.  On June 9, 1995, the Corporation 
acquired approximately $28 million in deposits from First Union National 
Bank of Virginia at its Waynesboro office.  On June 22, 1995 
approximately $7 million in deposits were acquired from a Richmond office 
of Virginia First Savings Bank.  The acquisitions which were not material, 
were accounted for as purchases, and, accordingly, the accounts and 
transactions for both acquisitions are included in the Corporation's 
Consolidated Financial Statements subsequent to the respective merger 
dates.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Total assets on September 30, 1995 were $2.036 billion, or 6 
percent above the year earlier total of $1.922 billion.  At December 31, 
1994, total assets were $1.926 billion.  Average total assets in the 
third quarter of 1995 were $2.026 billion, or 5 percent higher than the 
third quarter 1994 average of $1.924 billion.  After nine months, total 
assets averaged $1.977 billion in 1995 compared with $1.921 billion in 
1994.

Loan totals rose to $1.190 billion on September 30, 1995, or 11 
percent above the year earlier total of $1.069 billion.  On December 31, 
1994, loans, net of unearned income, totaled $1.102 billion.  Loan growth 
in the third quarter of 1995 principally occurred in the same segments of 
the loan portfolio as in prior periods.  Increases were recorded in 
indirect instalment loans, commercial loans, and mortgage loans.  Average 
loans, net of unearned income, increased 12 percent in the third quarter of 
1995 to $1.175 from $1.046 billion in the third quarter of 1994.  After 
nine months, loans, net of unearned income, averaged $1.152 billion in 
1995, or 11 percent above $1.036 billion the same period in 1994.

The investment securities portfolio on September 30, 1995 totaled 
$675 million, which was slightly above the year earlier total of $672 
million.  The investment securities available for sale portfolio 
increased 18 percent to $194 million on September 30, 1995, from the year 
earlier total of $165 million.  Securities held to maturity decreased 5 
percent to $481 million from the year earlier total of $507 million.  
In the third quarter, investment securities averaged $667 million in 1995 
and $675 million in 1994.  After nine months, the portfolio averaged $644 
million in 1995 and $693 million in 1994.

In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 
115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities, 
investment securities that are classified as available for sale are 
reported at fair value.  The difference between fair value and the 
amortized cost of securities available for sale had an unrealized gain of 
$2.0 million, or $1.3 million net of tax effects.  At December 31, 1994, 
the difference resulted in an unrealized loss of $5.7 million, or $3.7 
million, net of tax effects.  The unrealized gains at September 30, 1995 
resulted from a decline in the level of interest rates and investment of 
funds into securities at current market rates.

On September 30, 1995 the Corporation was not invested in short-term 
money market investments.  One year earlier the total was $300 thousand.  
At December 31, 1994, the Corporation did not own any of these instruments.

Total deposits on September 30, 1995, were $1.784 billion, or 6 percent 
above the year earlier total of $1.689 billion.  At year-end 1994, 
deposits totaled $1.689 billion.  Near the end of the second quarter of 
1995, two deposit acquisitions added approximately $35 million to deposit 
totals.  Compared with year earlier totals, demand deposits increased 8 
percent to $286 million on September 30, 1995.  Interest-bearing accounts,
however, decreased 5 percent to $800 million.  Certificates of deposit 
of $100 thousand and over increased 27 percent to $89 million.  Other 
time deposits increased 18 percent to $608 million on September 30, 1995.
The increase in other time deposits was partially attributable to a 
promotional campaign conducted in the first and second quarters of 1995.  
Average total deposits in the third quarter were $1.773 billion in 1995 
and $1.693 billion in 1994.  After nine months in 1995, total deposits 
averaged $1.722 billion compared with $1.690 billion in the same period 
in 1994.  

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net income increased 10 percent in the third quarter of 1995 to 
$6.1 million from $5.6 million in the third quarter of 1994.  Earnings 
per share rose 8 percent in the third quarter to $.40 in 1995 from $.37 
in 1994.

After nine months in 1995, net income totaled $17.6 million, or 5 
percent above net income of $16.8 million in the comparable period of 
1994.  Net income per share also increased 5 percent to $1.16 after nine 
months in 1995 from $1.11 in the 1994 period.

Net income in the third quarter of 1995 produced a return on 
average assets of 1.21 percent compared with 1.17 percent in the third 
quarter of 1994.  After nine months this ratio of profitability was 1.19 
percent in 1995 compared with 1.17 percent in 1994.  In the third quarter 
of 1995, the return on average shareholders' equity improved to 11.18 
percent from 10.91 percent in the same quarter of 1994.  After nine 
months, this ratio was 10.90 percent in 1995 and 11.01 percent in 1994.  

Interest income increased 14 percent in the third quarter of 1995 
compared with the third quarter of 1994.  Interest expense, however, 
increased 37 percent in the third quarter of 1995.  The result was a 2 
percent increase in net interest income.  Interest income rose 13 percent 
after nine months of 1995 compared with the same period in 1994.  For 
those respective periods, interest expense increased 30 percent.  Thus, 
net interest income increased 5 percent after nine months in 1995.  The 
differential between the growth in interest income and interest expense 
reflects the repricing of deposits at higher interest rate levels and 
increased competition for both loans and deposits.

As the cost of funds increased relative to yield on earning assets, 
the net interest margin came under pressure.  In the third quarter of 
1995 the net interest margin was 4.78 percent compared with 4.95 percent 
in the third quarter of 1994.  In the first two quarters of 1995 the net 
interest margin was 5.05 percent and 4.84 percent, respectively.  After 
nine months, the net interest margin was high at 4.88 percent in 1995 
compared with 4.80 percent in 1994.

The provision for loan losses was $480 thousand in the third 
quarter of 1995 and $1.4 million after nine months in 1995.  The amounts 
in the comparable 1994 periods were $375 thousand and $1.2 million.  The 
18 percent increase in the provision for the nine month periods was 
attributable principally to growth in the loan portfolio.  On September 
30, 1995, the allowance for loan losses totaled $14.0 million, or 1.18 
percent of loans, net of unearned income.  One year earlier, the 
allowance totaled $13.7 million, or 1.28 percent of loans, net unearned 
income.

Both net loan losses and non-performing assets declined from year 
earlier levels.  Net loan losses in the third quarter of 1995 amounted 
to $373 thousand, or only .13 percent (annualized) of average loans, net 
of unearned income.  In the third quarter of 1994, net loan losses 
totaled $403 thousand, or .15 percent (annualized) of average loans.  
After nine months, net loan losses were $1.2 million in 1995, or 15 
percent less than $1.4 million in 1994.  Net loan losses represented .14 
percent (annualized) of average loans after nine months in 1995 compared 
with .18 percent in the comparable 1994 period.


On September 30, 1995, total nonperforming assets were $11.7 
million, or 17 percent below the year earlier total of $14.1 million.  
The 1995 total was composed of $7.7 million in nonaccrual loans and $4.0 
million in foreclosed properties.  In 1994, the total contained $7.1 
million in nonaccrual loans and $7.0 million in foreclosed properties.  
Although the September 30, 1995 total was less than the year earlier 
total, it was above the June 30, 1995 total of $10.2 million.  The 
increase was attributable principally to a single credit.  On September 
30, 1995, loans 90 days or more past due totaled $3.4 million compared 
with the year earlier total of $2.9 million.

Non-interest income in the third quarter of 1995 of $4.3 million 
was 11 percent above $3.9 million recorded in the third quarter of 1994.  
Contributing to the increase were trust fees, which rose 18 percent, 
deposit account fees, which increased 5 percent, and other income, which 
was 16 percent higher in the 1995 quarter.  Mortgage loans sales income 
also rose 27 percent, but represented only a $20 thousand increase.

After nine months, non-interest income totaled $12.6 million, or 9 
percent below the year earlier total.  This comparison was influenced by 
$1.2 million in securities gains recorded in the 1994 period.  Excluding 
securities gains and losses, non-interest income after nine months was 
approximately level with the 1994 amount.  Comparing the nine month 
periods in 1995 and 1994, trust income increased 7 percent, and deposit 
account fees were 5 percent higher.  Other income decreased 3 percent in 
the 1995 period and income from mortgage loan sales declined 
significantly from $615 thousand in 1994 to $135 thousand in 1995.

Non-interest expense in the third quarter of 1995 was $16.5 million, 
which was approximately level with the year earlier amount.  Non-interest 
expense was favorably affected in the third quarter of 1995 by a 
reduction in the F.D.I.C premium assessment rate to $.04 from $.23 per 
$100 of insured deposits.  Also, a rebate of $1.1 million was recorded 
in the third quarter of 1995.  The result was a net benefit of $82 
thousand for these assessments in the third quarter of 1995 compared with 
an expense of $961 thousand in the third quarter of 1994.  The benefit of 
the premium reduction was absorbed by increases in other expense 
categories.  Comparing the third quarter of 1995 and 1994, personnel 
expense rose 7 percent and other expense increased 11 percent.  Occupancy 
expense and equipment expense were nearly unchanged in the third 
quarters of 1995 and 1994.

After nine months in 1995, non-interest expense totaled $49.8 
million, or only one half percent above the comparable 1994 amount.  
Decreases in F.D.I.C. assessments and other expenses were the principal 
factors for the consistent balance.  For the nine month periods of 1995 
and 1994, personnel expense increased 5 percent, equipment expense was 3 
percent higher, and occupancy expense was approximately level.

Income tax expense increased to $3.1 million in the third quarter 
of 1995 from $2.9 million in the third quarter of 1994.  After nine 
months, income tax expense totaled $8.9 million in 1995 compared with 
$8.5 million in 1994.  Both increases were attributable principally to 
higher pre-tax income.

LIQUIDITY

A financial institution's liquidity requirements are measured by 
its need to meet deposit withdrawals, fund loans, maintain reserve 
requirements, and operate the organization.  To meet its liquidity needs, 
the Corporation maintains cash reserves and has an adequate flow of funds 
from maturing loans, investment securities, and short-term investments.  
In addition the Corporation's bank affiliate has the ability to borrow 
from the Federal Reserve.  The Corporation considers its sources of 
liquidity to be ample to meet its estimated needs.

CAPITAL RESOURCES

On September 30, 1995, shareholders' equity totaled $221 million, 
or 10.8 percent of total assets.  Included in shareholders' equity on 
September 30, 1995 were unrealized gains on securities available for 
sale, net of tax effects, of $1.3 million.  In the third quarter of 1995, 
shareholders' equity averaged $220 million compared with the $206 million 
average in the third quarter of 1994.  After nine months, shareholders' 
equity averaged $215 million in 1995 and $204 million in 1994.  On 
September 30, 1995, the book value per share of common stock was $14.53, 
or 7 percent above the year earlier total of $13.54.

                       FIRST AMENDMENT TO
                                
                   JEFFERSON BANKSHARES, INC.
                                
                  EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN



     The Jefferson Bankshares, Inc. Employee Stock Purchase Plan
(the "Plan") is hereby amended as follows:

     1.   Section 2.k is amended to provide as follows:

          k.   Investment Account:  The account established by
     the Agent for each Participating Employee to record Common
     Stock purchased under, or deposited into, the Plan.

     2.   Section 5 is amended to add the following as the fourth
paragraph in that section:

          A Participating Employee may also deposit shares of
     Common Stock, including shares of Common Stock held on
     behalf of the Participating Employee in the Company's
     Dividend Reinvestment Plan, into the Participating
     Employee's Investment Account.  Shares of Common Stock to be
     deposited into a Participating Employee's Investment Account
     must be registered solely in the name of the Participating
     Employee or, if held on behalf of the Participating Employee
     in the Company's Dividend Reinvestment Plan, held solely on
     behalf of the Participating Employee.  Participating
     Employees who wish to deposit shares of Common Stock into
     their Investment Account must mail their request and, if
     applicable, the certificates representing their Common Stock
     to the Agent.

     This Amendment is adopted as of September 26, 1995.
