                          NOTE TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (Unaudited)

NOTE 1 - GENERAL

The financial statements presented  are those of May Limited  Partnership 1983-2
(the "Partnership").  The interim financial data are unaudited; however, in  the
opinion  of the  general  partner, the  interim  data include  all  adjustments,
consisting  only  of  normal  recurring   adjustments,  necessary  for  a   fair
presentation of the results for the interim periods.  These financial statements
should  be read in  conjunction with the financial  statements and notes thereto
included in the Partnership's December 31, 1994 Annual Report on Form 10-K.


NOTE 2 - LEGAL

In June  1995, an additional  lawsuit was filed  against the Partnership  in the
15th Judicial District Court,  Lafayette  Parish, Louisiana, Docket  No. 952601-
3B, styled Lamson Petroleum Corporation v. Hallwood Petroleum, Inc. et  al.  The
plaintiffs  in  the  lawsuit claim  that  they  have an  additional  valid lease
covering streets and roads  in the units of the  A. L. Boudreaux #1 well,  G. S.
Boudreaux #1 well, Mary Guilbeau #1 well and Duhon #1 well and are entitled to a
portion  of  the  production from  the  wells.    The  Partnership has  not  yet
determined the amount of its interest in  the properties which is at issue.   At
this  time,  the Partnership  believes that  the  difference between  the amount
already in escrow as a result of the litigation and the  amount of any liability
that may result upon resolution of this matter will not be material.


ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT'S  DISCUSSION  AND  ANALYSIS  OF   FINANCIAL  CONDITION  AND
         RESULTS OF OPERATION

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Partnership generated $206,000 of cash flow from operating activities during
the nine months ended September 30, 1995 and  made distributions of $153,000.  A
distribution payable to partners of record as of September 30, 1995 was declared
in October  1995.  The distribution  amount is $112,000, payable  $65,000 to May
Drilling Partnership 1983-2 partners and $47,000 to the general partner.  Future
distributions  are dependent on  future prices for  the Partnership's production
and the production level of the Partnership's remaining oil and gas reserves.  

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

THIRD QUARTER 1995 COMPARED TO THE THIRD QUARTER 1994

OIL REVENUE

Oil revenue increased  $1,000 in the  third quarter of 1995  as compared to  the
corresponding  period  in 1994  as  the  result  of  an increase  in  production
partially  offset by  a  decrease in  the  average oil  price.   Oil  production
increased 10% primarily due to an increase in state allowable production limits.
The average oil price  decreased from $17.36  per barrel in  1994 to $17.12  per
barrel in 1995.

GAS REVENUE

Gas revenue  increased $15,000 during the  third quarter of 1995  as compared to
the  corresponding period  in 1994 as  the result  of an  increase in production
partially offset by a decrease in price.  Gas production increased 10% primarily
due to an  increase in state allowable production limits.  The average gas price
decreased from $1.91 per mcf in 1994 to $1.57 per mcf in 1995. 

INTEREST INCOME

Interest income  decreased $1,000 during the  third quarter of 1995  as compared
with the third quarter of 1994 as a result of a lower average cash balance.

LEASE OPERATING EXPENSE

Lease  operating  expense increased  $8,000 for  the  third quarter  of  1995 as
compared  to the  corresponding  period  in  1994  primarily  due  to  increased
production taxes resulting from the 14% increase in oil and gas revenue.

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE

General  and administrative expense decreased $1,000 during the third quarter of
1995  as  compared to  the  third  quarter of  1994  due to  a  decrease  in the
allocation of overhead from the general partner.

DEPLETION EXPENSE

Depletion expense increased $2,000 during the  third quarter of 1995 as compared
with  the third quarter of  1994 as a  result of a higher  depletion rate due to
increased production as previously discussed.

NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1995 COMPARED TO THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER
30, 1994

The comparisons for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 and the nine months
ended September  30,  1994 are  consistent  with those  discussed  in the  third
quarter 1995 compared to the third quarter 1994 except for the following:

OIL REVENUE

Oil revenue  increased $2,000 during the  first nine months of  1995 as compared
with the same period in 1994.  The  increase is comprised of an increase in  the
average  oil price from $15.81 per barrel in  1994 to $17.74 per barrel in 1995,
partially offset by an 8% decrease in production primarily  due to  normal
production declines.

GAS REVENUE

Gas revenue decreased $122,000 during the  first nine months of 1995 as compared
with the same  period during 1994.  The  decrease is comprised of a  decrease in
gas prices from $2.21  per mcf in 1994 to $1.67 per mcf  in 1995 combined with a
3%  decrease in production primarily due to normal production declines partially
offset by increased state allowable production limits.

DEPLETION EXPENSE

Depletion  expense decreased  $4,000 during  the  first nine  months of  1995 as
compared  to the  corresponding period  in 1994  due to  a lower  depletion rate
resulting from the production declines previously discussed.

PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AND OTHER

Professional  services and other expense decreased $15,000 during the first nine
months  of 1995 as compared  with the same  period in 1994 due  to the timing of
payments for professional services.
