              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.

                         SOUTH BANKING COMPANY
                           ALMA,     GEORGIA
                        MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION


     During the second quarter of 1994, total assets increased
$2,963,132 or 3.4%.  The banks have experienced a substantial increase
in deposits due to the stabilizing 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, an increase has occurred during this quarter as
the bank continues their attempt 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 and increased slightly.  The demand
for loans resulted in a net increase in loans of $5,949,871 or 10.1%. 
The bank continues to scrutinize the loan portfolio and loan request to
insure quality loans.  The increase in assets in 1995 of 5.3% compared
to a increase of 2.7% for 1994 is an indication of the improved economy.

     Net income increased by $125,922 for the period in 1995 compared to
1994.  Net interest income increased by $153,439 or 14.1%.  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 $12,042 or 4.8% over 1994.  Other
income increased by $51,581 in 1995 over 1994 for the second quarter. 
Other income has increaed substantially in 1995, as a result of
participation in the SBA loan program and as a result of services
rendered by the data processing center for nonrelated banks.  The data
processing center began operations during the second quarter of 1994.

     Provision for loan losses have remained at levels consistent with
prior year 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 decreased $61,306 or 5.5%.  This
primary area of decrease is in data processing cost related to computer
conversion.  The prior year had excess cost related to conversion.

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