Dear Sir or Madam:
Legg Mason Income Trust, Inc. ("Company") is a corporation organized
underthe laws of the State of Maryland by Articles of Incorporation dated
April 28,1987. We understand that the Company is about to file Rule 24f-2
Notices pursuant to Rule 24f-2 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended, for the purpose of making definite the number of shares of its
capital stock, par value $.001 per share ("Shares"), in the following four
series: U.S. Government Intermediate-Term Portfolio, Investment Grade Income
Portfolio, U.S. Government Money Market Portfolio and High Yield Portfolio,
which it has registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and
which were sold during the fiscal year ended December 31, 1996.
We have, as counsel, participated in various corporate and other matters
relating to the Company. We have examined copies of the Articles of
Incorporation and By-Laws, as now in effect, the minutes of meetings of the
directors and other documents relating to the organization and operation of
the Company, and we are generally familiar with its affairs. Based on the
foregoing, it is our opinion that the Shares of the Company sold during the
fiscal year ended December 31, 1996, the registration of which will be made
definite by the filing of the Rule 24f-2 Notices referred to above, were
legally issued, fully paid and non-assessable. We express no opinion as to
compliance with the Securities Act of 1933, the Investment Company Act of 1940
or applicable state securities laws in connection with the sales of Shares.
We hereby consent to this opinion accompanying the Rule 24f-2 Notices
which you are about to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We
also consent to the reference to our firm
