ITEM 2. ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS

The Registrant has completed the sale of all of its assets to The Clinton Oil 
Company ("Clinton"), the General Partner of the Limited Partnership. The sale 
was made pursuant to the provisions of Article IX, Sections 9.3 and 9.4 of the 
Limited Partnership Agreement. Section 9.3 grants to Limited Partners holding a 
majority of the Interests the right to vote to, among other things, "approve or 
disapprove the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the 
Partnership" and to "dissolve, wind up and terminate the Partnership". Section 
9.4 provides for the General Partner to send a written notice to each Limited 
Partner describing the rights to be exercised, the facts and circumstances 
relevant to the determination as whether such rights should or should not be 
exercised and a statement that the exercise or nonexercise of such rights will 
be determined by the vote of the Limited Partners owning a majority of the 
Interests then outstanding. The written notice was mailed to limited Partners 
on October 21, 1995 and the votes were tabulated through December 12, 1995. The 
following is a summary of the votes of the Limited Partner Interest:

           % Voting to approve the sale of assets          68.3%
           % Not responding to notice                      27.0%
           % Opposed to the sale of assets                  4.7%
                                                          ------
                                                          100.0%
                                                          ------

The Registrant's net assets, consisting primarily of crude oil and natural gas 
reserves, leasehold rights and cash reserves, net of its liabilities (including 
the estimated costs of the plugging and abandonment of Partnerships wells) were 
sold to Clinton for $183,311 in cash. The cash offer was made at 115% of the 
"Interest Value" provided for in Article IV of the Limited Partnership 
Agreement. The limited Partnership Agreement Provides that the salvage value of 
the production equipment is allocable 100% to the General Partner. The cash 
proceeds from the sale were distributed to the Limited Partner Interests on 
December 15, 1995 and the General Partner took the equipment in kind.

The sale of the assets and subsequent distribution of the proceeds to the 
Partners terminated the business of the Limited Partnership. The General 
Partner filed a Certificate of Cancellation of Limited Partnership with the 
Secretary of State of Ohio on December 22, 1995. A Copy of the Certificate as 
filed is made a part of this Form 8K as Exhibit 3.2.

ITEM 7 FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND EXHIBITS.

The sale of the assets and the distribution of the proceeds to Partners 
terminated the business of the Limited Partnership and a Certificate of 
Cancellation of Limited Partnership has been filed with the Secretary of 
State of Ohio. Since the Limited Partnership has no assets or liabilities and 
no longer exists, no pro forma financial statements are included with this 
Form 8K.
