SIGNATURE THOMAS G. KNIPPER
TITLE CONTROLLER
Board of Directors
Carillon Fund, Inc.:
In planning and performing our audits of the financial statements
of Carillon Fund, Inc. ("CFI") for the period ended December 31,
1997 (on which we have issued our report dated February 12, 1998),
we considered its internal control structure, including control
activities for safeguarding securities, in order to determine our
auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the
financial statements and to comply with the requirements of Form N-SAR,
not to provide assurance on CFI's internal control structure.
The management of CFI is responsible for establishing and
maintaining internal control. In fulfilling this responsibility,
estimates and judgments by management are required to assess the
expected benefits and related costs of controls. Generally,
controls that are relevant to an audit pertain to the entity's
objective of preparing financial statements for external purposes
that are fairly presented in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles. Those controls include the safeguarding of
assets against unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition.
Because of inherent limitations in any internal control, errors or
fraud may occur and not be detected. Also, projection of any
evaluation of internal control to future periods is subject to the
risk that it may become inadequate because of changes in conditions
or that the effectiveness of the design and operation may
deteriorate.
Our consideration of CFI's 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. A material
weakness is a condition in which the design or operation of the
specific internal control structure elements 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. However, we noted no matters involving CFI's
internal control structure and its operation, including controls
for safeguarding securities, that we consider to be material
weaknesses as defined above as of December 31, 1997.
This report is intended solely for the information and use of
management, the Board of Directors and the Securities and Exchange
Commission.
