                           MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                     OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                                   As of March 31, 1995



      The following is a discussion of the financial condition,
changes in financial condition and results of operations of the
Company.

Financial Condition

     During the first three months of 1995, the Company's
stockholders' equity increased $1,006,000 or an annualized 19.3%.
At March 31, 1995, the Company had 5,316 shares of Treasury Stock
at an average cost of $10.02 per share.

     In December 1990, the Federal Reserve Board's risk-based
guidelines became effective.  Under these guidelines, capital is
measured against the Company's risk-adjusted assets.  Each asset on
the balance sheet, as well as a balance sheet equivalent amount of
contingent obligations that are off-balance sheet, is assigned a
risk weighing from zero to 100 percent.  The sum of the weighted
assets constitutes risk-adjusted assets.  The Company's tier 1
capital (common stockholders' equity less goodwill) to risk-
adjusted assets was approximately 14.55% at March 31, 1995, well
above the 4 percent minimum required.  Total capital to risk-
adjusted assets approximated 14.55%, also well above the minimum
requirement.

Asset Quality

     We continue our commitment to credit quality in 1995. Net
charge-offs as a percentage of average loans for the first three
months of 1995 were .016%.  At March 31, 1995, non-performing
assets were $1,032,000 or .43%.  Non-performing assets consist
primarily of real estate loans.

     At March 31, 1995, the allowance for possible loan losses was
$2,156,000 or 1.35% of gross loans compared with $1,942,000 or
1.39% of gross loans at March 31, 1994.  Management considers the
allowance more than adequate to cover possible losses in the loan
portfolio.

Asset/Liability Management

     The principal function of asset/liability management is to
manage the balance sheet mix, maturities, repricing characteristics
and pricing components to provide an adequate and stable net
interest margin with an acceptable level of risk over time and
through interest rate cycles.

     Interest-sensitive assets and liabilities are those that are
subject to repricing within a specific relevant time horizon.  The
Company measures interest-sensitive assets and liabilities, and
their relationship with each other at terms of immediate, monthly
intervals up to 12 months, and over 1 year.

     Changes in net interest income, other than volume-related,
arise when interest rates on assets reprice in a time frame or
interest rate environment that is different from the repricing
period for liabilities.  Changes in net interest income also arise
from changes in the mix of interest-earning assets and interest-
bearing liabilities.

     The Company's strategy with respect to asset/liability
management is to maximize net interest income while limiting our
exposure to a potential downward movement.  Strategy is implemented
by the Bank's management, which takes action based upon its
analysis of the Bank's present positioning, its desired future
positioning, economic forecasts and its goals.


Liquidity

     The liquidity position of the Company is managed to insure
that sufficient funds are available to meet customers' needs for
loans and deposit withdrawals.  Liquidity to meet demand is
provided by maintaining marketable investment securities and money
market assets such as Interest Bearing Deposits in Banks and
Federal Funds Sold. Other sources of liquidity include deposit
growth and short and long term borrowings.

     The loan to deposit ratio for the Company was 82.7% at March
31, 1995.

     Management is unaware of any recommendations by regulatory
authorities, known trends, events or uncertainties that will have
or that are reasonably likely to have a material effect on the
Company's liquidity.

Results of Operations for Three Months Ended March 1995 and 1994


Results of Operations Overview

     In the first three months of 1995 the Company reported
earnings of $666,000 an increase of $93,000 or 16.2% over the same
period in 1994.  The interest margin before allowance for loan
losses was $2,343,000 for the first three months of 1995 compared
to $2,005,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1994.

Interest Income

     Interest and fees on loans was $3,431,000 for the first three
months of 1995. This represents a increase of $586,000 or 20.5% in
comparison to the same period in 1994. The increase was the result
of an increase in rates charged on loans as well as an increase in
the balance of loans.

     Interest on deposits at other financial institutions decreased
$53,000 for the first three months of 1995 compared to the same
period in 1994. The decrease was the result of a decrease in
average balances.

     Interest on investment securities was $819,000 for the first
three months of 1995. This represents an increase of $131,000 or
19% over the same period in 1994. Income on Federal Funds Sold
increased by $27,000 or 112.5%.  The increase in investment income
is primarily due to an increase in interest rates.


Interest Expense

     Interest expense increased 353,000 or 21.6% during the first
three months of 1995. The increase in interest interest expense is
due to increased Interest-Bearing Deposits as well as increased
interest rates as compared to March 31, 1994.


Allowance for Loan Losses

     The Banks evaluate the adequacy of the allowance for loan
losses based on an analysis of specific problem loans, as well as
on an aggregate basis.  Management reviews a calculation of the
allowance for loan losses on a monthly basis and feels that the
allowance for loan losses is adequate to provide for potential
future losses.  The level of the allowance is based on management's
periodic and comprehensive evaluation of the loan portfolio,
including past loan loss experience; current and projected economic
trends; the volume, growth and composition of the loan portfolio;
and other relevant factors.  Reports of examinations furnished by
State and federal banking authorities are also considered by
management in this regard.

<PAGE>

     The Banks have established the allowance for loan losses to
reduce the gross level of loans outstanding by an estimate of
uncollectible loans.  As loans are deemed uncollectible, they are
charged against the allowance.  A provision for loan losses is
expensed against current income on a monthly basis.  This provision
acts to replenish the allowance for loan losses to accommodate
charge-offs and growth in the loan portfolio, thereby maintaining
the allowance at an adequate level.

     For the first three months of 1995 provisions charged against
1995 income were $68,000 which was the same as the provision during
the same period in 1994.


Other Operating Income

Other operating income increased $24,000 or 8.3%. Service charge
income increased 16.3%. All other income increased by $10,000 or
13.7%. Trust income remain unchanged at $75,000.

Other Operating Expense

     Other operating expense increased $212,000 or 15.3%. Employee
expenses increased $92,000 or 13.3%. Occupancy expense increased
$34,000 compared to the first three months of last year or 9%.
Equipment expenses increased $51,000 or 62.9%. The increase in
equipment expense is primarily due to depreciation charges associated
with the computer and item processing equipment the banks purchased
during 1994. Computer services increased $1,000 or 1.4%. All other
expenses increased $56,000 or 13.6%.
