Re: Government Securities Equity Trust Series 1
Gentlemen:
We have acted as special counsel for you, as
Sponsor of the above-referenced trust, (a Unit Investment
Trust, herein called the "Trust"), in connection with the
issuance under a Trust Indenture and Agreement and related
Reference Trust Agreement (collectively, the "Indenture"),
among you and United States Trust Company of New York, as
Trustee, of units of fractional undivided interest in the
Trust (in the aggregate, the "Units").
During the fiscal year ended April 30, 1995,
certain Units were sold by you upon their initial issuance
and/or in connection with your maintenance of a secondary
market for Units. United States Trust Company of New York,
as Trustee, has confirmed that certificates evidencing the
Units have been executed and delivered by the depositor and
the Trustee or the ownership of Units has been recorded on
<PAGE>
the books of the Trustee, in either case in accordance with
the Indenture.
We have examined copies of such documents
delivered by the United States Trust Company of New York,
the Indenture, the form of certificate evidencing the
Units, the Rule 24f-2 Notice being filed today with the
Securities and Exchange Commission and such other documents
as we have deemed necessary or advisable for purposes of
this opinion. We have assumed that the copies of the
documents we have reviewed and the signatures thereon are
genuine.
Based upon the foregoing, and in reliance upon
such documents delivered by the United States Trust Company
of New York, we are of the opinion that the Units,
registration of which such Rule 24f-2 Notice makes definite
in number, were legally issued, fully paid and
nonassessable.
Very truly yours,
CAHILL GORDON & REINDEL
