Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements(Unaudited)

Note 1-Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basic Presentation:  The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated
- ------------------
financial statements were prepared in accordance with Rule 10-01 of regulation
S-X and the instructions for Form 10-Q and, therefore, do not include all
disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
presentation of financial statements.  In the opinion of management, the
condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting
of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial
condition of Commercial National Financial Corporation as of March 31, 1997 and
December 31, 1996, and the results of its operations and cash flow for the three
months ending March 31, 1997 and March 31, 1996.  The results for the three
months ended March 31, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of the results
expected for the full year.

Principals of Consolidation:  The accompanying consolidated financial
- ---------------------------
statements include the accounts of Commercial National Financial Corporation
(the Corporation) and its wholly owned subsidiary, Commercial Bank (the Bank).
All material inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation.


Investment in Debt and Equity Securities:  Securities are classified into held
- ----------------------------------------
to maturity, available for sale and trading categories.  Held to maturity
securities are those which the Corporation has the positive intent and ability
to hold to maturity.  These securities are reported at amortized cost.
Available for sale securities are those which the Corporation may decide to
sell if needed for liquidity, asset-liability management, tax planning or other
reasons.  Available for sale securities are reported at fair value, with
unrealized gains or losses included as a separate component of equity net of
tax.  Trading securities are bought principally for sale in the near term, and
are reported at fair value with unrealized gains or losses included in
earnings.  The Corporation did not hold an securities as available for sale or
for trading at any time during the first quarter of 1997.

Income Taxes:  Income tax for the quarter ended March 31, 1997and 1996 is based
- ------------
upon the liability method, according to SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income
Taxes."  Certain income tax and expense items are reported in different time
periods for tax purposes.  Deferred or prepaid taxes are recorded in Other
Assets in the balance sheet.

Earnings Per Share:  Earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by
- ------------------
the weighted average number of common shares outstanding  and common equivalent
shares with a dilutive effect.  Common equivalent shares are shares which may
be issuable to employees upon exercise of outstanding stock options.  The
average number of shares was 878,387 in the first quarter of 1997 and 858,742
in the first quarter of 1996.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Average assets for the quarter ending March 31, 1997 increased to $164,000,000
from the $161,220,000 at the quarter ending December 31, 1996.  The Bank
continues to benefit from strong loan demand and a healthy loan portfolio.

Total loans averaged $122,000,000 during the first quarter of 1997.  This is a
$2,697,000 or 2.3% increase over the quarter ending December 31, 1996 balance of
$119,303,000.  Commercial loans contributed $1,652,000 of the growth. Loans to
consumers contributed an additional $1,015,000 of the growth while mortgage loan
balances remained stable.  Interest rates and a strong local economy should
allow for continued demand for business related loans over the next several
quarters.  Reduced dealer reserves will adversely affect the growth rate in
consumer loans. Average balances were as follows:

Total securities averaged $26,697,000 during the quarter ending March 31, 1997.
This is   $1,876,000 less than the quarter ending December 31, 1996.  We
anticipate increasing the balance in Treasury securities to accommodate requests
for repurchase agreements and for future short term liquidity needs.


Average deposits for the quarter ending March 31, 1997 totaled $130,478,000.
The balances remained stable compared to the quarter ending December 31, 1996.
There was, however, a shift in deposits categories from savings to
interest-bearing demand deposits.

The Bank continues to use Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) advances to fund loan
growth.  Average advances outstanding remained unchanged at $10,000,000 during
the quarter ending March 31, 1997, the Bank has the ability to access an
additional $5,000,000 in borrowings from the FHLB in Indianapolis. Depending on
the interest rate environment, type of assets to be funded, and availability of
liquidity through other sources, the Bank may increase FHLB borrowings in the
future.

LIQUIDITY AND RATE SENSITIVITY
Loan growth continues to outpace deposit growth.   The loan to deposit ratio
based on ending balances increased to 96.2% at March 31, 1997 from 92.0% at
December 31, 1996.

Maturities of securities have been used to partially fund loan growth. The Bank
has previously elected to classify all securities as held to maturity.
Accordingly these securities are not available to fund short term liquidity
needs except as they mature.  During 1997, $11,780,000 of securities will
mature.  We anticipate that a percentage of securities purchased to replace
maturities will be classified as held-for-sale.  The available for sale
securities will be used to assist the Bank in managing liquidity.  As
previously discussed, the Bank has available an additional $5,000,000 in FHLB
advances to fund loan growth.

Fed funds sold averaged $6,566,000 during the quarter compared to $4,510,000
during the fourth quarter of 1996.  The goal of the Bank is to maintain fed
funds sold at least equal to 2% of total assets.  The percentage of fed funds
sold to total assets at March 31, 1997 was 4%.

ASSET QUALITY

The allowance for loan losses was 1.54% of total loans at March 31, 1997
compared to 1.49% at December 31, 1996.  Net charge-offs totaled $3,494 for the
quarter ending March 31, 1997.  The Bank expects that these ratios will
continue to be below historical levels, however, we anticipate that net
charge-offs will increase over the next several quarters as the portfolio of
new consumer loans seasons.


CAPITAL RESOURCES
Total shareholder's equity at March 31, 1997 was $15,901,000.  On April 19,1997
the board of director's approved a $.33 dividend per share payable to
shareholders of record as of June 13, 1997 on July 1, 1997.  The Corporation's
capital ratios continue to exceed regulatory guidelines for the classification
of well capitalized. A summary of the Corporation's capital ratios follows:

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net income for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 was $418,000, an increase of
$41,000 over the same period in 1996.  The Corporation achieved this increase
though improved net interest income and non-interest income and maintaining
stable non-interest expense.  The increase in net income was adversely affected
by a $10,000 increase in the provision for loan losses and a $48,000 increase in
Federal income tax expenses.

The improved net income produced a return on average shareholders' equity of
10.88% compared to 10.22% for the quarter ending March 31, 1996.   The increase
in net income combined with higher average assets improved the return on
average assets to 1.03% for the quarter ending March 31, 1997 compared to .99%
for the quarter ending March 31, 1996.

The increase in net interest income is primarily due to an increase in earning
assets and interest bearing liabilities.  A decrease in net interest margin
from 5.00% to 4.94% partially offset the effect of  the net increase in
interest earning assets.

Non-interest Income
- -------------------
Non-interest income was $184,000 at March 31, 1997. This represents a $7,000 or
3.7% increase over the same period in 1996.

The major changes that affected this increase were an increase in per item NSF
fees resulting in an $8,000 increase in NSF fee income, offset by reduced DDA
service charge income related to the Bank's introduction of check imaging.
Prior to check imaging, the Bank assessed a service charge to customers that
did not participate in check truncation. The Bank now provides all customers
with images of checks and deposits without charge.  Other income remained flat
at $110,000.

Non-interest Expense
- --------------------
Non-interest expense increased  $4,000 to $1,379,000 for the quarter ending
March 31, 1997, as compared to the quarter ended March 31, 1996.  Salary and
employee benefits were $35,000 lower than the same period in 1996 primarily as
the result of reduced staffing levels at the Bank's two supermarket branches.
The $9,000 decline in occupancy expense was primarily the result of reduced
depreciation, and lower than anticipated repairs and maintenance costs.
Furniture and equipment costs increased $40,000 primarily as a result of the
Bank's continued investment in technology and the associated costs of repairing
and maintaining this equipment.  As a result of flat overhead expenses and an
increase in average assets, the Corporation's ratio of non-interest expense to
average assets for the quarter ending March 31, 1997 improved to 3.41% from
3.61% for the quarter ending March 31, 1996.
