      NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                          JUNE 30, 1998
                           (Unaudited)

(1)  Basis of Presentation.  The accompanying consolidated
condensed financial statements include the accounts of the
Company and its subsidiaries.  These statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles for interim financial information and the instructions
to Form 10-Q and do not include all the information and footnotes
required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements.  In the opinion of management, all
adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered
necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim
periods have been included.  Operating results for the nine
months ended June 30, 1998, are not necessarily indicative of the
results that may be expected for the fiscal year ended September
30, 1998.  The accompanying consolidated financial statements and
the information included under the heading "Management's
Discussion and Analysis" should be read in conjunction with the
consolidated financial statements and related notes of FRP
Properties, Inc. for the year ended September 30, 1997.

(2)  Earnings Per Share. Effective December 31, 1997, the Company
adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 128,
"Earnings per Share" ("SFAS 128").  SFAS 128 replaced the
presentation of primary earnings per share (EPS) and fully
diluted EPS with a presentation of basic and diluted EPS.  Basic
earnings per share are based on the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding during the periods.  Diluted earnings
per share are based on the weighted average number of common
shares and potential dilution of securities that could share in
earnings.  Earnings per share for all prior periods have been
restated.

(3)  Contingent Liabilities.  The Company and its subsidiaries
are subject to legal proceedings and claims arising out of their
businesses that cover a wide range of matters.  Additional
information concerning these matters is presented in Note 10 to
the consolidated financial statements included in the Company's
1997 Annual Report to stockholders.  Such information is
incorporated herein by reference.

quarter and first nine months increased 8.7% and 8.3%, respectively, due an
increase in miles hauled. Real Estate revenues increased 6.2% for the third
quarter and 11.8% for the first nine months from the same period last year. 
The real estate revenue increase for the third quarter was due to higher
royalties and rental income.   For the first nine months the increase in
revenues was primarily due to $195,000 of timber sales in fiscal 1998,
lease up from a warehouse/office building that was under construction in
the first nine months of 1997, and increased mining royalties. 

Gross profit in Transportation increased $180,000 for the third quarter and
$753,000 for the first nine months from the same periods last year. The
increase for the third quarter was primarily due to higher revenues.   The
increase for the first nine months was due primarily to increased gains on
the sale of equipment and increased revenues.   Increase in drivers wages
and benefits continue to negatively impact gross profit.   Equipment sales
increased $323,000 for the nine months.

Gross profit in the Real Estate segment increased $80,000 for the third
quarter and $650,000 for the first nine months.   The improvement for the
third quarter was primarily higher occupancy and income producing space
under management.   For the first nine months the increase was primarily
due to gross profit of $188,000 on the sales of timber in the first nine
months of 1998, the first nine months of 1997 included a write off of
$134,000 in prior tenant improvement resulting from leasing existing space
to a new tenant and higher rental income due to leasing this space and
lease up of project under construction last year.

The selling, general and administrative expense increased $321,000 for the
third quarter and $480,000 for the first nine months from the same periods
last year.   Selling, general and administrative expense as a percent of
sales was 9.6% for the third quarter as compared to 8.6% last year, and for
the first nine months was 9.2% compared to 9.0% last year.   The increase
was primarily attributable to costs incurred for various special projects
and business development opportunities related to transportation.

Interest expense increased $31,000 for the third quarter, and $195,000 for
the first nine months due primarily to an increase in the average debt
outstanding and, to a lesser extent, an increase in the average interest
rate.   These increases were partially offset by a greater capitalization
of interest in fiscal 1998.

Year 2000 Conversion

The Company, like most entities relying on automated data processing is
faced with the task of modifying systems to become Year 2000 compliant.  
The Company has analyzed its Year 2000 exposure and developed plans for
addressing the Year 2000 exposure as well as reengineering selective
systems to enhance their functionality.   As a result, the Company has
purchased new state of the art software and hardware for its tank truck
dispatching and maintenance system that is represented to be Year 2000
compliant to replace its existing systems.

The Company purchases from an affiliate, Florida Rock Industries, Inc.(FRI)
certain administrative services including automated data
processing(Purchased Services). FRI is in the process of updating its
systems to be Year 2000 compliant.  The Company has reviewed FRI's plan and
is monitoring the progress of this plan as it relates to the Purchased
Services.

The costs associated with the purchase and installation of the tank truck
dispatching and maintenance software and hardware will be capitalized and
amortized over the estimated useful life of the software or equipment.  
Other costs associated such as selection, training and reengineering of the
existing processing are being expensed as incurred.   Based on current
information, the expected costs of the systems are not expected to be
material to the financial condition or results of operations of the
Company. 

The Company presently feels it is addressing in a timely manner the major
issues related to the Year 2000 and any significant disruptive problems in
its ability to conduct its business as a result are unlikely.   However,
despite efforts and initiatives undertaken by the Company, total assurances
can not be given that absolute compliance can be achieved.  There can be no
guarantees that the computer systems of other entities on which the Company
relies will be converted in a timely manner or that their failure to
convert, or a conversion that is incompatible with the Company's system,
will not have an adverse effect on the Company's business, financial
condition and results of operations.  The Company is considering other
steps to reduce these risks, including requests for assurances from third
parties concerning their Year 2000 compliance.


Financial Condition

The Company continues to maintain its sound financial condition with
sufficient resources to meet anticipated capital expenditures and other
operating requirements.

Other

During fiscal 1997, the transportation segment's ten largest customers
accounted for approximately 31% of transportation's revenue.  The loss of
any one of these customers could have an adverse effect on the Company's
revenue and income.

While the Company is affected by environmental regulations, such
regulations are not expected to have a major effect on the Company's
capital expenditures or operating results.  Additional information
concerning environmental matters is presented in Note 10 to the
consolidated financial statements included in the Company's 1997 Annual
Report to stockholders.  Such information is incorporated herein by
reference.
