Re: The Royce Fund
File No. 811-3599
Gentlemen:
Filed herewith is a revised supplement to the prospectus
of The REvest Growth & Income Fund (the "Fund"), a series of The
Royce Fund. This supplement has been revised to reflect the
correct date of the most recent prospectus on file with the SEC,
dated February 27, 1996. Otherwise this revised supplement does
not differ from the one filed on July 1, 1996 which incorrectly
referred to the date of the Fund's prospectus as April 30, 1996.
Very Truly Yours,
John E. Denneen
