Item 4.  Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant.

         Registrant has appointed Crowe, Chizek and Company LLP ("Crowe
Chizek"), Indianapolis, Indiana, as registrant's independent accountants for the
fiscal year ending December 31, 1999. This is a change in accountants
recommended by registrant's Audit Committee and approved by registrant's Board.
Crowe Chizek was engaged by registrant on March 31, 1999. Olive LLP ("Olive"),
formerly known as Geo. S. Olive & Co. LLC, has served as registrant's
independent accountants since registrant's formation in 1983.

         The audit reports issued by Olive with respect to the registrant's
financial statements for 1998 and 1997 did not contain an adverse opinion or
disclaimer of opinion, and were not qualified as to uncertainty, audit scope or
accounting principles. During 1998 and 1997 (and any subsequent interim period),
there have been no disagreements between the registrant and Olive on any matter
of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or
auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the
satisfaction of Olive, would have caused it to make a reference to the subject
matter of the disagreement in connection with its audit report. Moreover, none
of the events listed in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K occurred during
1998 or 1997 or any subsequent interim period.

         The change in accountants does not result from any dissatisfaction with
the quality of professional services rendered by Olive as the independent
accountants of registrant. The change in accountants follows registrant having
put its audit and other outside accounting work out for bid to Olive and Crowe
Chizek, which served as the independent accountants for P.T.C. Bancorp prior to
its merger with registrant on April 30, 1998.

         Services provided to registrant and its subsidiaries by Olive with
respect to the fiscal year ended December 31, 1998 included the examination of
registrant's consolidated financial statements and consultations on various tax
matters. Crowe Chizek is expected to provide similar type services to registrant
in the 1999 fiscal year.

Securities and Exchange Commission
Washington, DC 20549



We were previously the independent accountants for Indiana United Bancorp (the
"Registrant"), and on January 29, 1999 we reported on the consolidated financial
statements of the Registrant as of and for the two years ended December 31,
1998. On March 31, 1999, we were dismissed as independent accountants of the
Registrant.

We have read the Registrant's statements included under Item 4 of its Form 8-K
dated April 6, 1999 and we agree with such statements.
