     Monthly  Report  to  Certificateholders  as  to  distributions  made  on
     November 25, 1995 hereby incorporated herein by reference as exhibits to
     Registrant's Current  Report on Form  8-K filed with the  Securities and
     Exchange Commission.

     Monthly  Report  to  Certificateholders  as  to  distributions  made  on
     December 25, 1995 hereby incorporated herein by reference as exhibits to
     Registrant's Current  Report on Form  8-K filed with the  Securities and
     Exchange Commission.


                                    PART I

Item 1.  Business.

     The trust fund  relating to Lehman FHA Title I Loan Trust 1995-4, Asset-
Backed Certificates, Series 1995-4 ("Series 1995-4") was established pursuant
to  a Pooling and Servicing  Agreement dated as of  July 1, 1995 among Lehman
ABS Corporation, as  depositor (the "Depositor"), The First  National Bank of
Keystone,  as seller  (the "Seller"),  Lomas  Mortgage USA,  Inc., as  master
servicer   and  claims  administrator  (the  "Master  Servicer"  and  "Claims
Administrator"),  Coast  Partners  Acceptance  Corporation,  as  contract  of
insurance holder (the "Contract of Insurance Holder") and First Bank National
Association, as trustee (the "Trustee").

     With respect  to the Series  listed herein, Series 1995-4  issued Lehman
FHA  Title I Loan  Trust 1995-4, FHA  Title I Loan  Asset-Backed Certificates
(the  "Certificates").    The  Certificates  represent  beneficial  ownership
interests in a trust fund  (the "Trust").  The Trust consists  primarily of a
pool of closed-end fixed-rate  home improvement loans and  retail installment
sale contracts (the "Mortgage Loans"), secured by first and junior mortgages,
deeds  of  trust  and  security  deeds on  residences  (which  are  primarily
condominiums,  townhouses and  one-  to  four-family  residences),  including
investment properties (the  "Mortgaged Properties") and partially  insured by
the  Federal  Housing  Administration  (the  "FHA")  of   the  United  States
Department of Housing  and Urban Development  under Title  I of the  National
Housing  Act of  1934 (the  "Title I  Program").   Certificateholders receive
Monthly Reports regarding distributions.

     Information  with respect  to the  business of  the Trust  would  not be
meaningful because the only "business" of the Trust is the collection  on the
Mortgage   Loans  and  distribution  of   payments  on  the  Certificates  to
Certificateholders.  This information is accurately summarized in the Monthly
Reports to Certificateholders, 
                                      2
<PAGE>
which are filed on Form 8-K.   There is no additional relevant information to
report in response to Item 101 of Regulation S-K.

Item 2.  Properties.

     The  Issuer owns no  property.  The  Series 1995-4  Certificates, in the
aggregate,  represent the  beneficial ownership  in a  trust  fund consisting
primarily of the Mortgage Loans.  The Trust will acquire title to real estate
only upon  default of the mortgagors under a  Mortgage Loan.  Therefore, this
item is inapplicable.

Item 3.  Legal Proceedings.

     None.

Item 4.  Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

     No matters  were submitted  to a vote  of Certificateholders  during the
fiscal year covered by this report.


                                   PART II

Item  5.   Market  for  Registrant's Common  Equity  and Related  Stockholder
Matters.

     The   Series  1995-4  Certificates  represent,  in  the  aggregate,  the
beneficial ownership in the Trust consisting primarily of the Mortgage Loans.
The  Certificates are  owned by  Certificateholders  as Trust  beneficiaries.
Strictly speaking,  Registrant has  no "common equity,"  but for  purposes of
this Item only,  Registrant's FHA Title I Loan  Asset-Backed Certificates are
treated as "common equity."

(a)  Market Information.  There is no established public trading market for
     ------------------
Registrant's Certificates.   Registrant believes the Certificates  are traded
primarily in intra-dealer markets and non-centralized inter-dealer markets.
 
(b)  Holders.  The number of registered holders of all classes of
     -------
Certificates on December 31, 1995 was 1.

(c)  Dividends.  Not applicable.  The information regarding dividends
     ---------
required by Sub-paragraph  (c) of Item 201 of  Regulation S-K is inapplicable
because  the Trust  does  not  pay dividends.    However, information  as  to
distribution  to Certificateholders  is provided  in the  Monthly Reports  to
Certificateholders for each month of the  fiscal year in which a distribution
to Certificateholders was made.

Item 6.  Selected Financial Data.

     Not Applicable.   Because of  the limited  activities of the  Trust, the
Selected Financial Data required  by Item 301 of Regulation S-K  does not add
relevant information  to that which  is provided  by the  Monthly Reports  to
Certificateholders.

                                      3
<PAGE>

Item  7.   Management's Discussion  and Analysis  of Financial  Condition and
Results of Operations.

     Not Applicable.  The information required by  Item 303 of Regulation S-K
is inapplicable because the Trust does not have management per se, but rather
the Trust has a Trustee who causes the preparation of the Monthly  Reports to
Certificateholders.   The  information  provided by  the  Monthly Reports  to
Certificateholders does provide the relevant financial  information regarding
the financial status of the Trust.

Item 8.  Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.

     Monthly Report to Certificateholders as to distributions  made on August
25, 1995 hereby incorporated herein  by reference as exhibits to Registrant's
Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

     Monthly  Report  to  Certificateholders  as  to  distributions  made  on

Exchange Commission.

     Monthly Report to Certificateholders as to distributions made on October
25, 1995 hereby incorporated herein  by reference as exhibits to Registrant's

     Monthly  Report  to  Certificateholders  as  to  distributions  made  on
November  25, 1995  hereby incorporated  herein by  reference as  exhibits to

Exchange Commission.

     Monthly  Report  to  Certificateholders  as  to  distributions  made  on
December  25, 1995  hereby incorporated  herein by  reference as  exhibits to
Registrant's  Current  Report on  Form  8-K  filed  with the  Securities  and
Exchange Commission.

     Annual Statement of  Compliance by the Master Servicer  is not currently
available and will be subsequently filed on Form 8.

     Independent Accountant's  Report on  Servicer's servicing  activities is
not currently available and will be subsequently filed on Form 8.

Item 9.   Changes  in and  Disagreements with  Accountants on  Accounting and
Financial Disclosure.

     None.

                                   PART III

Item 10.  Directors and Executive Officers of Registrant.

     Not  Applicable.    The  Trust  does not  have  officers  or  directors.
Therefore, the information required by items 401 and 405 of Regulation S-K is
inapplicable.


                                      4
<PAGE>
Item 11.  Executive Compensation.

     Not Applicable.  The  Trust does not have officers or  directors to whom
compensation  needs to be paid.  Therefore,  the information required by Item
402 of Regulation S-K is inapplicable.

Item 12.  Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management.

     (a)  Security ownership of certain beneficial owners.  Under the Pooling
          -----------------------------------------------
          and Servicing Agreement governing the  Trust, the holders of the 
          Certificates generally do not have the  right to vote and are 
          prohibited from  taking part in management  of the  Trust.  For  
          purposes of this  Item and Item  13 only, however, the 
          Certificateholders are treated as "voting security" holders.

          As of  December 31, 1995,  the following are the  only persons
          known to Registrant  to be the beneficial owners  of more than
          5% of any class of voting securities.

     (b)  Security ownership of management.  Not Applicable.  The Trust does

not  have any officers or directors.   Therefore, the information required by
Item 403 of Regulation S-K is inapplicable.

     (c)  Changes in control.  Not Applicable.  Since Certificateholders do
          ------------------
not possess,  directly  or indirectly,  the  power  to direct  or  cause  the
direction of the management and policies of  the Trust, other than in respect
to  certain required  consents regarding  any amendments  to the  Pooling and
