          [Address of Stockholder]



          Dear [Stockholder]:

               I  appreciate having the opportunity to discuss Avondale and
          the upcoming shareholders meeting with you the other day.

               Please  use  the green card we mailed you to cast your vote.
          As a precaution and  to  be  sure  you  have the green card, I am
          enclosing  another  one  for  your  use  if  necessary.    As  we
          discussed, Avondale's Board of Directors and Management sincerely
          appreciates  your support and encourages you to vote in favor  of
          the director nominees and against the resolutions.

               You can send  your  card  in the enclosed pre-paid overnight
          package to the following address:

                                   ADP Proxy Services
                                   Attention:  Rob Agosta
                                   51 Mercedes Way
                                   Edgewood, New York  11717

               Since the enclosed green card has no details on it, you need
          to furnish the name, address and  shares  you  owned  as  of  the
          record date of April 5, 1994 and sign where appropriate.

               If you have no objection to it, I would appreciate receiving
          a  fax  copy  of  your  completed  green  card to my attention at
          504/436-5063.

               We  value  you  as  a  shareholder  and  we appreciate  your
          continuing support.

                                             Sincerely,



                                             Thomas M. Kitchen
