Connecticut Daily Tax Free Income Fund, Inc.
600 Fifth Avenue
New York, New York 10020

Gentlemen:

     We have acted as counsel to Connecticut Daily Tax Free Income Fund, Inc.
(the "Fund") in connection with  the  preparation  of  the  Rule  24f-2  Notice
(the  "Notice")  covering 64,741,185.83 shares of Common Stock, par value $.001
per share, of the Fund.

     We have examined copies of the Certificate of Incorporation  and By-laws of
the Fund,  the  Registration  Statement,  and such other  corporate  records and
documents,  including  the consent of the Board of Directors  and the minutes of
the meeting of the Board of Directors of the Fund,  as we have deemed  necessary
for the purpose of this opinion.  We have also  examined  such other  documents,
papers,  statutes and authorities as we deemed necessary to form a basis for the
opinion  hereinafter  expressed.  In our  examination of such material,  we have
assumed  the  genuineness  of all  signatures  and the  conformity  to  original
documents of fact material to such opinion,  and we have relied upon statements
and certificates of officers and representatives of the Fund and others.

     Based upon the  foregoing,  we are of the opinion  that 64,741,185.83
shares of Common Stock,  par value $.001 per share of the Fund, the registration
of which the  Notice  makes  definitive,  were  legally  issued,  fully paid and
non-assessable.

     We hereby consent to the filing of this  opinion as an exhibit to the Rule
24f-2 Notice.

                                                              Very truly yours,

                                                              BATTLE FOWLER LLP
