           NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



Basis of Presentation

     The accompanying consolidated financial statements in this
report have not been audited.  The statements have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and
general practice within the banking industry.

     On February 28, 1990, the merger of Georgia Peoples
Bankshares, Inc. into South Banking Company was completed.  The
purchase method of accounting was used to record this transaction. 
The activity of Georgia Peoples Bankshares, Inc. since February 28,
1990 has been consolidated in these statements.

     Effective January 1, 1993, the company adopted FASB 109
regarding recording of deferred income taxes.  Prior year
statements have been restated to reflect an adjustment required of
$58,508 reduction in deferred taxes and an increase in equity.

     In the opinion of management, all adjustments for the fair
presentation of the financial position and results of operations
for the interim periods have been made.

            MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF 
          FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS




     During the first quarter of 1995, total assets increased
$1,486,335 or 1.8%.  The banks have experienced a small increase in
deposits due to competitive structuring of certificate rates during
this period of improved economic activity.  The banks have not been
aggressively attempting to maintain certificate of deposits that
are rate sensitive; however, the small increase occurred during
this quarter as the bank has attempted to stop the movement of
money and has been able to maintain more of the money of core
customers.  The core bank deposits have remained solid.  The demand
for loans resulted in a net increase in loans of $1,890,458 or
3.4%.  The bank continues to scrutinize the loan portfolio and loan
request to insure quality loans rather than emphasizing growth. 
The increase in assets in 1995 of 1.8% compared to a increase of
2.0% for 1994 is an indication of the stabilizing economy. 

     Net income increased by $166,961 for the period in 1995
compared to 1994.  Net interest income increased by $203,558 or
20.06%.  This increase in net interest income results from the
changes in the mix of interest earning assets and the increase in
higher yielding loans.  Service charges have decreased by $19,159
or 7.6% over 1994.  As the interest rate margins are squeezed
tighter, the banks have looked to other fee type income.  Other
income increased due to fees from participation in SBA Loan
programs of $48,882 and services rendered by the data processing
center for nonrelated banks of $51,532.  The data processing center
began operation during the second quarter of 1994.

     Provision for loan losses have remained at levels lower than
prior years as the reserve for loan losses continue to be adequate
for the loan portfolio.  The reserve was increased substantially in
1991 and management feels current provision levels are adequate
based on current conditions.

     Operating expense as a total increased $57,470 or 6.02%.  This
primary area of increase is in government areas such as increased
FDIC fees, salaries and expenses related to the new data processing
center.  The bank data processing charges from an outside vendor
have been eliminated.

     The bank continues to monitor the economy and operations to
insure proper actions are taken as the economy and banking climate
continue to change.
