SUB-ITEM 77B - ACCOUNTANT'S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL




January 19, 1996


The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors
Z-Seven Fund, Inc.

Dear Members:

We have audited the financial statements of Z-Seven Fund, Inc. for the year 
ended December 31, 1995, and have issued our report thereon dated January 
19, 1996.  In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements of 
Z-Seven Fund, Inc., we considered the internal control structure in order to 
determine our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on 
the financial statements and not to provide assurance on the internal control 
structure.  A material weakness is a condition in which the design or operation 
of internal control structure components does not reduce to a relatively low 
level the risk that errors or irregularities in amounts that would be material 
in relation to the financial statements being audited may occur and not be 
detected within a timely period by employees in the normal course of performing 
their assigned functions.  Our consideration of the internal control structure 
would not necessarily disclose all matters in the internal control structure 
that might be material weaknesses under standards established by the American 
Institute of Certified Public Accountants.  However, we noted no matters 
involving the internal control structure and its operation that we consider to 
be material weaknesses as defined above.

This report is intended solely for the information and use of the audit 
committee, management, and others within the organization.



Very truly yours,

KPMG Peat Marwick LLP
