                       CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER'S MESSAGE


Dear Shareholder:

     We are pleased to report net earnings for Century South Banks, Inc.
for the fourth quarter of 1998.  Net income for the quarter was $3,899,000 as
compared to $3,328,000 for the fourth quarter of 1997, representing an increase
of 17.2%.  Earnings per diluted share increased to $0.35 for the fourth quarter
of 1998 as compared to $0.30 for the same quarter of 1997, a 16.7% increase.
Net income for the year through December 31, 1998 was $14,681,000 or $1.32 per
diluted share as compared to $9,632,000 or $0.87 per diluted share through
December 31, 1997, representing an increase of 52.4%.

     The quarterly cash dividend of $0.11125 per share paid on January 6, 1999,
represents a 4.7% increase over the same quarter of 1997 and a 1.1% increase
over the previous quarter's dividend.
 
     We are very pleased with the overall performance of your company for
1998.  This marks our first full year of operations as the "new" Century South
Banks, Inc.  We accomplished most all of our objectives for the year, and are
most pleased that our return on average assets for the year ended 1998 was 1.38%
as compared to 0.91% for the year ended 1997.  At December 31, 1998, our reserve
for loan losses was a strong 1.48% of total loans outstanding and our
nonperforming assets were in line with our  peers at 0.82% of total assets.

     During the fourth quarter, we concluded the sale of First National Bank of
Union County and its fifty million dollars in assets.  We continue to progress
with the acquisition of the Independent Bank of Oxford, Alabama, and look
forward to that transaction being consummated in second quarter 1999.

     The year 1998 was a great one, and we look forward to 1999 with much
excitement and expectation.
 
     We appreciate your continued support of our company and welcome your
comments and questions.
 
                                 Sincerely,


                                    James A. Faulkner
