Dear Sirs:
We have acted as special counsel for you, as original
or successor of Hutton Investment Trust, GNMA Series 86-A (the
"Fund"); we did not act as your special counsel in connection
with the issuance of units of fractional undivided interest in
the fund (the "Units") in accordance with the related Trust
Indenture (the "Indenture") with the trustee (the "Trustee").
However, we have no reason to believe that the Units, when
originally issued, were not legally issued, fully-paid and non-
assessable. The accompanying Rule 24f-2 Notice (the "Notice") for
the Fund makes definite in number the registration of Units sold
in reliance upon the Rule during the fiscal period covered by the
Notice. The Units covered by the Notice are hereinafter referred
to as the "Registered Units".
We have examined and are familiar with originals or copies,
certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of such
documents and instruments as we have deemed necessary or
advisable for the purpose of this instrument.
Based upon the foregoing, we are of the opinion that the
Registered Units, assuming due execution and delivery of any
certificates evidencing the Registered Units, and assuming that
the Units when originally issued were legally issued, fully-paid
and non-assessable, have been legally issued and are fully-paid
and non-assessable.
Very truly yours,
Davis Polk & Wardwell
