                                          (UNAUDITED)


     Note 1.   Basis of Presentation

               The financial information included herein is unaudited;
               however,  such information reflects all adjustments
               (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) which
               are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair
               statement of results for the interim periods.

              The results of operations for the three months ended March 31,
              1995 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be
              expected for the full year.

     Note 2.   Adoption of New Accounting Principle

              On January 1, 1995, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
              Accounting Standard "SFAS" No. 114, "Accounting by Creditors
              for the Impairment of a Loan." SFAS No. 114 generally requires
              impaired loans to be measured on the present value of expected
              future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest
              rate, at the loan's observable market price or at the fair
              value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent.

                  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                                   AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     The following is management's discussion and analysis of certain
     significant factors which have affected the Company's financial
     position and operating results during the periods included in the
     accompanying consolidated financial statements.

     Financial Condition

     As of March 31, 1995, the Company experienced an increase in total assets
     of 9.06%, as compared to December 31, 1994.  Total loans increased
     $10,712,388 during this period or approximately 12.49%. Deposits increased
     $9,854,295 or 8.87% during this period.  The increases in total assets,
     loans and deposits are attributed to the improvement in the stability of
     the local economy, as well as the addition of three commercial officers to
     the staff.

     Liquidity

     As of March 31, 1995, the liquidity rate was 27.95%, which management
     considers to be adequate to meet the Company's funding needs. Liquidity is
     measured by the ratio of net cash, short-term and marketable securities to
     net deposits and short-term liabilities.

     Capital

     Banking regulations require the banks and bank holding companies to
     maintain minimum capital ratios to assets.  At March 31, 1995, the
     Company's capital ratios on a combined basis exceeded the required ratios
     as follows:

                                                                 Regulatory
                                                    Actual       Requirement

            Leverage capital ratio                  10.71%           4.00%
            Risk based capital ratios:
            Core capital                            13.80%           4.00%
            Total capital                           15.06%           8.00%

     Results of Operations

     Net interest income for the three months ended March 31, 1995 increased
     37.80% to $2,067,642 over the $1,500,491 for the same period in 1994.
     Interest income for the three month period increased $765,885 or 34.67%,
     while interest expense increased $198,734 or 28.05%.  The interest income
     increase was due to the significant increase in commercial loans that were
     produced by the commercial officers, as well as management efforts to move
     more of the assets into higher earning loans and tax free investments and
     out of the lower investments such as federal funds sold and other
     investments. The increase in interest expense is attributed to the
     increase in new interest bearing deposit accounts that have been opened as
     a result of the calling efforts of the commercial officers.

     Management increased the provision for loan losses during the three months
     ended March 31, 1995 to $150,000 as compared to $30,000 for the same
     period in 1994, primarily due to the increase in the amount of total loans
     outstanding.  Based on management's assessment of the economic environment
     and prior charge-off and collection history, the reserve for loan loss is
     considered adequate to absorb future losses inherent in the portfolio.

     Total other income decreased approximately $31,311 or 12.39% to $221,396
     as compared to $252,707 for the same period 1994. The increase in service
     charge is a result of increase in volume primarily from commercial
     checking accounts, which are subject to analysis charges.  The decrease in
     other income is due to the reduction in rental income earned on other real
     estate during the same period in 1994.  There was also a decrease in the
     amount of origination fees earned during the same period in 1994.

     Total other expenses increased to $1,053,439 or 8.25% over the $973,162
     during the three months ended March 31, 1994. The increase in salaries and
     employee benefits was due to an addition of approximately nine employees
     to the staff over the same period in 1994.  Occupancy and equipment
     expense decreased due to the closing of a branch office, of which rental
     expense was incurred during 1994.

     Net income increased for the three month period ended March 31, 1995 by
     $175,763 as compared to the same period in 1994.  The increase is
     attributed to more efficient operations of the bank, improvement in the
     local economy and the increase in deposit and loan relationships.

     The Company is not aware of any known trends, events or uncertainties,
     other than the effect of events as described above, that will have or that
     are reasonably likely to have a material effect on its liquidity, capital
     resources or operations.  The Company is also not aware of any current
     recommendations by the regulatory authorities which, if they were
     implemented, would have such an effect.
