Item 5. OTHER EVENTS

(a.) This is an update to the event reported as of July 25, 1995,
     whereby it was reported that officials of the Registrant,
     First National Bancorp ("First Bancorp"), and The Bank of
     Heard County ("Bank of Heard County") had signed a Letter of
     Intent to merge.  Effective August 3, 1995, those parties have
     signed an Agreement of Reorganization and Plan of Merger
     whereby the Bank of Heard County will be merged into Interim
     Heard Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of First Bancorp,
     in a reverse triangular merger which will make Bank of Heard
     County a wholly owned subsidiary of First Bancorp.


     As previously reported, the merger will be structured as a tax
     free exchange of stock whereby each share of Bank of Heard
     County common stock will be exchanged for 325.58 shares of
     First Bancorp $1.00 par value common stock with the
     transaction to be accounted for under the pooling-of-interests
     method of accounting.  Bank of Heard County currently has
     outstanding 1,000 shares of common stock.  No cash, except for
     fractional shares will be offered in the transaction.  The
     merger is subject to Bank of Heard County shareholder approval
     and the approval of various state and federal regulatory
     authorities.

     Currently, total consolidated assets of Bank of Heard County
     are $40 million and shareholders equity is $4 million.  Bank
     of Heard County is a state chartered commercial bank.

     First Bancorp is currently a $3.1 billion asset holding
     company located in Gainesville, Georgia.  First Bancorp is a
     bank and thrift holding company with 18 commercial bank and 2
     savings bank affiliates.  If the merger is consummated, Bank
     of Heard County will become First Bancorp's 21st bank
     subsidiary and the company will have 65 offices in over 40
     communities in North Georgia and Central Florida.
