Dear Shareholder:

     Last week Summit Bancshares, Inc. mailed to its shareholders
its Notice of Annual Meeting of Shareholders to be held on April
18, 1995 and its Proxy Statement and Proxy relating to such Annual
Meeting.

     It has come to the attention of the Company that the Proxy
contained misnumbered references to some of the Proposals contained
in the Proxy Statement.  Those references have been corrected in
the enclosed Proxy.  Please ignore the white Proxy provided with
the Proxy Statement sent to you last week and, if you determine to
submit a Proxy, please utilize and return ONLY the enclosed cream
colored Proxy.

     We apologize for any inconvenience that this might have
caused.

                                   Very truly yours,

                                   /s/ Philip E. Howard
