                        THE RODNEY SQUARE
                       MULTI-MANAGER FUND
                                
                Supplement dated December 1, 1997
                    to the Fund's Prospectus
                        dated May 1, 1997
                                
      Effective  January 26, 1998 the Rodney Square Multi-Manager
Fund (the "Fund"):

1.    Will eliminate sales charges on all purchases of shares  of
  the Growth Portfolio.
2.    Will  terminate the Portfolio's 12b-1 Plan and all payments
  by the Portfolio of Rule 12b-1 fees.

      The  Board  of Trustees of the Fund also has  approved  the
following matters, subject to shareholder approval:

1.    A  new investment advisory agreement with Wilmington  Trust
  Company ("WTC").
2.   An amendment to the investment objective of the Portfolio so
  that  the  Portfolio's investment objective  will  be  to  seek
  "superior long-term growth of capital."

      A special meeting of shareholders of the Portfolio has been
called  for January 8, 1998 to consider and vote on, among  other
proposals,  the  new  investment  advisory  agreement   and   the
amendment   of   the   Portfolio's  investment   objective.    If
shareholders  approve the new investment advisory agreement,  the
Portfolio  would no longer be managed by two different  portfolio
advisers  following separate investment approaches.  Rather,  WTC
would  be  exclusively  responsible for  the  management  of  the
Portfolio.
     
     In  addition to the change in advisory arrangements and  the
investment objective of the Portfolio; the Board approved
     
1.    A new investment policy that would require the Portfolio to
  invest at least 85% of its total assets in equity securities of
  large  cap U.S. issuers judged by WTC to possess strong  growth
  characteristics.
2.   A change in the Portfolio's name to "Large Cap Growth Equity
Portfolio."

     These  changes are contingent upon shareholder  approval  of
both the new investment advisory agreement and the change of  the
Portfolio's  investment  objective.  If shareholder  approval  is
obtained,  the proposed new investment structure of the Portfolio
would become effective on January 26, 1998.
