Enclosed is an opinion of counsel. No fees are payable to the

fiscal year ended June 30, 1995. The Trust has net carryforward redemptions at
June 30, 1995 in the amount of $16,852,744.
Pursuant to Rule 24f-2(c) actual aggregate sales price used to
calculate the filing fee is $(16,852,744). This amount reflects total sales of
$21,229,621 reduced by the actual aggregate redemption price of $38,082,365 for
shares redeemed during the fiscal year ended June 30, 1995.
Very truly yours,
THE 59 WALL STREET TRUST

RE: RULE 24F-2 NOTICE FOR THE 59 WALL STREET TRUST WITH RESPECT TO
THE 59 WALL STREET TAX FREE SHORT/INTERMEDIATE FIXED INCOME FUND
Ladies and Gentlemen:
This opinion is being furnished in connection with the registration,
pursuant to Rule 24f-2 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the
"1940 Act"), of an indefinite number of Shares of Beneficial Interest (par value
$0.01 per share) (the "Shares") of The 59 Wall Street Trust, a Massachusetts
business trust (the "Trust") under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"1933 Act"). I understand that the Trust proposes to file a notice (the
"Notice") with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") with
respect to the Trust's fiscal year ended June 30, 1995, pursuant to such Rule
24f-2 under the 1940 Act. This opinion is being furnished with a view to your
filing it with the Commission in conjunction with the filing of the Notice.
This opinion is limited solely to the laws of the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts as applied by courts in such Commonwealth. I understand that the
foregoing limitation is acceptable to you.
Based upon and subject to the foregoing, please be advised that it is
my opinion that the Shares covered by the Notice were legally issued and (to the
extent still outstanding) are fully paid and nonassessable, except that, as set
forth in the Trust's registration statements as currently in effect filed with
the Commission pursuant to the 1933 Act, shareholders of the Trust may under
certain circumstances be held personally liable for its obligations.
Very truly yours,
/s/ PHILIP W. COLLIDGE
