("Haverty's") on October 21, 1997 as reported on Form 8-K dated October 21, 1997

The Registrant sold five Stop N Go stores in the first nine months of 1997 as

the quarterly period ended September 30, 1997.
Accounts related to the above have been eliminated and interest income has been
added assuming that the net proceeds from the sales were invested at 5% per
annum until distributed as presented by the pro forma adjustments. See Note 3
below.
Note 3.
The unaudited consolidated statements present the pro forma balance sheet at
September 30, 1997, had the Registrant sold Wickes, the eight Stop N Go and
Circle K stores sold December 23, 1997, and Haverty's on September 30, 1997, and
the pro forma statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 1996 and
for the nine months ended September 30, 1997, had the Registrant sold all
properties and MBS referred to in Note 1 and Note 2 at December 31, 1995 and

present the historical figures previously reported in the appropriate Form 10-K
and 10-Q reports.
No provision for Federal and state income taxes has been made in the historical
or pro forma consolidated financial statements because the Registrant qualifies
as a REIT and had distributed amounts in excess of its taxable income for the
respective periods.
