Mortgage Securities III Trusts A, B, C, D, E and F
Notes to Financial Statements
For the Thirteen Weeks Ended March 29, 1998
(Dollar amounts in thousands)

                                 



Note 1.Description of business:

       Mortgage  Securities III Trusts A, B, C, D, E and  F  (the
       "Trusts") were established under the laws of Delaware by a
       trust  agreement.  Prior to December 27, 1987,  the  trust
       agreement  was among Mortgage Securities III  Corporation,
       Weyerhaeuser  Real  Estate Company  and  Wilmington  Trust
       Company.   On December 27, 1987, Weyerhaeuser Real  Estate
       Company  dividended its beneficial interests  in  Mortgage
       Securities  III Trusts A, B, C, D, E and F to Weyerhaeuser
       Company which in turn contributed its beneficial interests
       in the Trusts to Weyerhaeuser Financial Services, Inc.,  a
       wholly-owned  subsidiary  of  Weyerhaeuser  Company.   The
       Trusts  were organized to, and are engaged to raise  funds
       through  the issuance and sale of Collateralized  Mortgage
       Obligation  bonds  collateralized by  Government  National
       Mortgage  Association (GNMA) and Federal National Mortgage
       Association (FNMA) certificates.  The Trusts A, B, C, D, E
       and  F  were  established on April 8, 1986  and  commenced
       business  on  June 30, 1986, September 30, 1986,  December
       30,  1986, February 27, 1987, December 22, 1987 and  March
       30, 1988, respectively.

       Each  Trust has issued a series of Collateralized Mortgage
       Obligations  (the "Bonds").  Trust B, C, and D's remaining 
       Bonds  are  collateralized  by GNMA  and FNMA certificates
       and  Trust E's Bonds are  collateralized  by GNMA 
       certificates.  Trust A and F Bonds have been fully repaid.

         E               December 22, 1987        $131,600
</TABLE>
       Activity during the first quarter of 1998 consisted of the
       collection of principal and interest on the GNMA and  FNMA
       certificates and disbursement of the required  payment  of
       principal and interest to the bondholders.

Note 2.Accounting policies:

       The  preparation of financial statements in conformity with
       generally    accepted   accounting   principles    requires
       management  to make estimates and assumptions  that  affect
       the   reported  amounts  of  assets  and  liabilities   and
       disclosure  of  contingent assets and  liabilities  at  the
       date  of  the financial statements and the reported amounts
       of  revenues  and  expenses during  the  reporting  period.
       Actual results could differ from those estimates.

       In  1997, the bonds in Trusts A and F were called and  any
       remaining  discounts were written off.  The bond discounts
       on  Trusts  B,  C,  and D were written off  as  management
       intends  to  prepay  the bonds at the  earliest  allowable
       prepayment  date  and the amounts are no longer  material.
       The  bond  discount for Trust E is amortized on a straight
       line basis over the remaining life of the instruments.

       Cash  and  equivalents include cash held in the collection
       accounts  and  invested  in short  term  investments  with
       original maturities of less than three months.

       The  cost  and estimated market values of investments  in
       debt securities are as follows:

       Per  the  terms of the prospectus, the Trusts are legally

       Collateralized Mortgage Obligation bonds as discussed  in

       The  stated maturity is the date such class will  be  fully
       paid,   assuming  that  scheduled  interest  and  principal
       payments  (with  no  prepayments) on the  certificates  are
       timely received.

       All collections on the certificates pledged as security for
       the Bonds will be remitted directly to a collection account
       (the "Collection Account") established with the Trustee and
       together  with the reinvestment earnings thereon,  will  be
       available  for application to the payment of principal  and
       interest on the bonds on the following payment date.

       Each Trust's Bonds are subject to a special redemption,  in
       whole  or  in part, if, as a result of substantial payments
       of  principal on the underlying mortgage loans  and/or  low
       reinvestment yields, the Trusts determine that  the  amount
       of  cash  anticipated to be on deposit  in  the  Collection
       Accounts on the next payment date might be insufficient  to
       make  required payments on the Bonds.  Any such  redemption
       would  not exceed the principal amount of Bonds that  would
       otherwise be required to be paid on the next payment  date.
       As  a result, a special redemption of Bonds will not result
       in  a  payment to bondholders more than two months  earlier
       than the payment date on which such payment would otherwise
       have been received.  The Bonds are not otherwise subject to
       call  at the option of the Trusts except that (a) Trust  B,
       C  and  E's Class 4 Bonds may be redeemed in whole, but not
       in  part, at the Trusts' option on any payment date  on  or
       after October 1, 2001, January 1, 2002 and January 1, 2003,
       respectively,  (or  on  any earlier  payment  date  if  the
       current  principal amount of Trust B, C  and  E's  Class  4
       Bonds   are   less  than  $6,100,  $10,500   and   $13,160,
       respectively)  and  (b) Trust D's  Class  3  Bonds  may  be
       redeemed  in whole, but not in part, at the Trust's  option
       on  any  payment date on or after March 1, 2002, or on  any
       earlier payment date if the aggregate outstanding principal
       amount  of  the Bonds of the class to be redeemed  is  less
       than 10 percent of its aggregate initial principal amount.

       Any  such redemptions at the option of the Trusts shall  be
       at  a  price  equal to 100 percent of the unpaid  principal
       amount of such Bonds plus accrued interest.

Note 4.  Assets pledged:

      Trust B, C and D's Bonds are collateralized by the Trusts'
      GNMA  and FNMA certificates and the Collection Accounts (see
      Note  3).   Trust E's Bonds are collateralized by Trust  E's
      GNMA certificates.  Collections on the certificates are used
      to  meet the quarterly Bond interest payments and to  reduce
      the outstanding principal balance on the Bonds.

Note 5.  Related parties:

      Trusts   A,   B,  C  and  D  purchased  from  an  affiliate,
      Weyerhaeuser  Mortgage Company, GNMA and  FNMA  certificates
      which  were used to collateralize the Bonds.  The  purchases
      were  at  par value, plus Trust A and D's purchase  premiums
      and  less Trust B and C's purchase discounts.  The purchases
      were  financed  with market-rate short-term debt  from  this
      affiliate  until  proceeds  from  the  bond  issuance   were
      obtained.

      Trust  E  purchased from an affiliate, Weyerhaeuser Mortgage
      Company,  GNMA certificates which were used to collateralize
      the   Bonds.    Trust   F  purchased  from   an   affiliate,
      Weyerhaeuser  Mortgage Company, GNMA and  FNMA  certificates
      which  were used to collateralize the Bonds.  The  purchases
      were  at  par  value,  less  the  purchase  discounts.   The
      purchases were financed with the proceeds received from  the
      Bond  issuances  and  notes  due  to  Weyerhaeuser  Mortgage
      Company.   The  notes accrued interest at Bank of  America's
      prime  rate  and  compounded interest  annually.   Both  the
      principal and interest related to the Weyerhaeuser  Mortgage
      Company  payables  were  paid off by Weyerhaeuser  Financial
      Services,  Inc.  (Beneficial  Owner)  in  March   1997,   in
      anticipation of the sale of Weyerhaeuser Mortgage Company to
      an unrelated third party by Weyerhaeuser Financial Services,
      Inc.   and     Weyerhaeuser    Company.   In  August   1997,
      Weyerhaeuser Financial Services, Inc. contributed capital to
      Trusts E & F, increasing beneficial owner's interest.
      
      Certain ongoing administrative and accounting functions  are
      provided by the Beneficial Owner at no cost to each Trust.
