Re:  Peoples First 1986 Stock Option Plan
     Registration Statement on Form S-8  

Gentlemen:

     We refer to the Peoples First Corporation 1986 Stock Option
Plan, as Amended and Restated as of February 16, 1994 (the "Plan"),
pursuant to which Peoples First Corporation (the "Company") may
issue (i) up to 820,701 shares of the Company's common stock (the
"Common Stock"), including 242,141 shares of Common Stock (the
"Shares") covered by the Registration Statement on Form S-8 filed
by the Company pursuant to the Securities Act of 1993, as amended
(the "Act"), to which this opinion is an exhibit, and (ii) such
indeterminate number of additional Shares as may be issuable to
avoid dilution upon the occurrence of certain events specified in
the Plan.

     We have acted as counsel to the Company in connection with the
preparation of the Registration Statement.  As such counsel, we
have examined originals, or copies certified to our satisfaction,
of the Plan, the Company's Amended and Restated Articles of
Incorporation and Bylaws, such agreements, documents, certificates
and other statements of government officials and corporate officers
and representatives, and other papers as we have deemed relevant
and necessary as a basis for our opinion.  In such examination we
have assumed the genuineness of all documents submitted to us as
originals and the conformity with the original document of
documents submitted to us as copies.  In addition, as to matters of
fact only, we have relied to the extent we deemed such reliance
proper, upon certificates and other written statements of public
officials and corporate officers of the Company.

     Based upon and subject to the foregoing, we are of the opinion
that the Shares have been duly and validly authorized for issuance
upon exercise of the options or the grant of Common Stock under the
Plan, and when the Shares are issued, delivered and paid for, upon
the exercise of options granted pursuant to the Plan or otherwise
under the Plan, they will be duly authorized, validly issued, fully
paid and nonassessable.

     We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit
to the above-mentioned Registration Statement.

                                   Very truly yours,

                                   BROWN, TODD & HEYBURN
