ITEM 4. CHANGE IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANTS
KPMG Peat Marwick LLP was previously the principal accountants for E & J
Properties, Ltd. On June 29, 1998, that firm resigned. The decision to change
accountants was not recommended by the General Partner.
In connection with the audits of the two fiscal years ended December 31, 1997
and the subsequent interim period through June 29, 1998, there were no
disagreements with KPMG Peat Marwick LLP on any matter of accounting principles
or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedures,
which disagreements if not resolved to their satisfaction would have caused
them to make reference in connection with their opinion to the subject matter
of the disagreement.
The audit reports of KPMG Peat Marwick LLP on the financial statements of E & J
Properties, Ltd. as of and for the years ended December 31, 1997, did not
contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified
or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles. A letter
from KPMG Peat Marwick LLP is attached as Exhibit A.
A new firm of certifying accountants has not yet been selected.
SIGNATURES
