          Re:  Form 24F-2 for M.S.D. & T. Funds, Inc.;
               Registration Nos. 33-27491 and 811-5782
               ---------------------------------------

Ladies and Gentlemen:

          We have acted as counsel for M.S.D. & T. Funds, Inc., a Maryland
corporation (the "Company"), in connection with the registration under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, of 2,781,260,029 shares of the Company's
common stock (the "Shares"), par value $.001 per share, in its Prime Money
Market Fund, Government Money Market Fund, Tax-Exempt Money Market Fund, Tax-
Exempt Money Market Fund (Trust), Value Equity Fund, Intermediate Fixed Income
Fund, Maryland Tax-Exempt Bond Fund and International Equity Fund, made definite
in number by the Form 24F-2 which this opinion accompanies.  During the
Company's fiscal year ended May 31, 1997 (the "Fiscal Year"), all said Shares
were registered pursuant to Rule 24f-2 under the Investment Company Act of 1940,
as amended.

          At all times during the Fiscal Year, the Company was authorized to
issue a total of 10 billion shares of common stock.  During the Fiscal Year, all
of the Shares were classified among the portfolios identified above.  We have
been informed by the Company's administrator that at no time during the Fiscal
Year did the number of issued and outstanding Shares of any portfolio exceed the
number of Shares of such portfolio that the Company was authorized to issue.

          We have reviewed the Company's Charter, its Bylaws, resolutions
adopted by its Board of Directors and holders of its Shares, and such other
legal and factual matters as we have deemed appropriate, and we have relied on
the accuracy of the information in the Form 24F-2 which this opinion
accompanies.

          This opinion is based exclusively on the Maryland General Corporation
Law and the federal law of the United States of America.

          Based on the foregoing, we are of the opinion that the Shares were,
when issued against payment therefor as described in the Company's prospectuses,
legally issued, fully paid and non-assessable by the Company.

          We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion with the Securities
and Exchange Commission as part of the Company's Form 24F-2.

                                                 Very truly yours,
