JOHN W. HENRY & CO./MILLBURN L.P.
(A Delaware Limited Partnership)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
These financial statements have been prepared without audit. In the opinion
of management, the financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting
of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the
financial position of John W. Henry & Co./Millburn L.P. (the "Partnership")
as of June 30, 1996 and the results of its operations for the six months
ended June 30, 1996 and 1995. However, the operating results for the
interim periods may not be indicative of the results expected for the full
year.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual
financial statements prepared in accordance with general accepted
accounting principles have been omitted. It is suggested that these
financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements
and notes thereto included in the Partnership's Annual Report on Form 10-K
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the year ended
December 31, 1995 (the "Annual Report").
2. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The Partnership pays brokerage commissions to MLF at a flat monthly rate of
1% (a 12% annual rate) of the Partnership's month-end assets. Effective
January 1, 1996, the brokerage commission the Partnership pays to the
Commodity Broker was reduced to .9792% (a 11.75% annual rate), and the
Partnership began to pay an administrative fee to the General Partner of
.020833% (a .25% annual rate). Month-end assets are not reduced for
purposes of calculating brokerage commissions by any accrued but unpaid
brokerage commissions, profit shares or other fees or charges. MLIP
estimates that the round-turn equivalent commission rate charged to the
Partnership during the six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, was
approximately $103 and $56, respectively (not including, in calculating
round-turn equivalents, forward contracts on a futures-equivalent basis).
MLF pays the Advisors annual Consulting Fees equal to 4% of the average
month end net assets managed by each of them.

4. FAIR VALUE AND OFF-BALANCE SHEET RISK
The Partnership trades futures, options and forward contracts in interest
rates, stock indices, commodities, currencies, metals and energy. The
Partnership's revenues by reporting category for the quarter ended June 30,
1996 were as follows:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>

---------------
$ 1,571,709
===============
</TABLE>
Market Risk
-----------
Derivative instruments involve varying degrees of off-balance sheet market
risk, and changes in the level or volatility of interest rates, foreign
currency exchange rates or the market values of the financial instruments
or commodities underlying such derivative instruments frequently result in
changes in the Partnership's unrealized gain or loss on such derivative
instruments as reflected in the Statements of Financial Condition. The
Partnership's exposure to market risk is influenced by a number of factors,
including the relationships among the derivative instruments held by the
Partnership as well as the volatility and liquidity of the markets in which
the derivative instruments are traded.
The General Partner has procedures in place intended to control market
risk, although there can be no assurance that they will, in fact, succeed
in doing so. These procedures focus primarily on monitoring the trading of
the two Advisors of the Partnership, calculating the Net Asset Value of the
Advisors' respective Partnership accounts as of the close of business on
each day and reviewing outstanding positions for over-concentration. While
the General Partner will not itself intervene in the markets to hedge or
diversify the Partnership's market exposure, the General Partner may urge
the Advisors to reallocate positions, or itself reallocate Partnership
assets among Advisors (although only as of the end of a month) in an
attempt to avoid over-concentrations. However, such interventions are
unusual. Except in cases in which it appears that an Advisor has begun to
deviate from past practice or trading policies or to be trading
erratically, the General Partner's basic risk control procedures consist
simply of the ongoing process of Advisor monitoring, with the market risk
controls being applied by the Advisors themselves.
Fair Value
----------
The derivative instruments used in the Partnership's trading activities are
marked to market daily with the resulting unrealized gains or losses
recorded in the Statements of Financial Condition and the related profit or
loss reflected in trading revenues in the Statements of Operations. The
contract/notional values of the Partnership's open derivative instrument
positions as of June 30, 1996 and December 31, 1995 were as follows:

</TABLE>
A portion of the amounts indicated as off-balance sheet risk reflects
offsetting commitments to purchase and to sell the same derivative
instrument on the same date in the future. These commitments are
economically offsetting but are not, as a technical matter, offset in the
forward market until the settlement date.
Credit Risk
-----------
The risks associated with exchange-traded contracts are typically perceived
to be less than those associated with over-the-counter (non-exchange-
traded) transactions, because exchanges typically (but not universally)
provide clearinghouse arrangements in which the collective credit (in some
cases limited in amount, in some cases not) of the members of the exchange
is pledged to support the financial integrity of the exchange. In over-the-
counter transactions, on the other hand, traders must rely solely on the
credit of their respective individual counterparties. Margins, which may be
subject to loss in the event of a default, are generally required in
exchange trading, and counterparties may also require margin in the over-
the-counter markets.

<PAGE>
The fair value amounts in the above tables represent the extent of the
Partnership's market exposure in the particular class of derivative
instrument listed, but not the credit risk associated with counterparty
nonperformance. The credit risk associated with these instruments from
counterparty nonperformance is the net unrealized gain, if any, included in
the Statements of Financial Condition. The Partnership also has credit risk
because the sole counterparty or broker with respect to most of the
Partnership's assets is MLF.
As of June 30,1996 and December 31, 1995, $14,915,784 and $19,033,635 of
the Partnership's assets, respectively, were held in segregated accounts at
MLF in accordance with Commodity Futures Trading Commission regulations.
The gross unrealized gain and the net unrealized gain on the Partnership's
open derivative instrument positions as of June 30, 1996 and December 31,
1995 were as follows:

Item 2: Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations
Operational Overview: Advisor Selections
Due to the nature of the Fund's business, its results of operations
depend on MLIP's ability to determine the appropriate percentage of each series'
assets to allocate to them for trading, as well as the Advisors' ability to
recognize and capitalize on trends and other profit opportunities in different
sectors of the world commodity markets. MLIP's Advisor selection procedure and
leveraging analysis, as well as the Advisors' trading methods, are confidential,
so that substantially the only information that can be furnished regarding the
Fund's results of operations is contained in the performance record of its
trading. Unlike operating businesses, general economic or seasonal conditions
do not directly affect the profit potential of the Fund, and its past
performance is not necessarily indicative of future results. Because of the
speculative nature of its trading, operational or economic trends have little
relevance to the Fund's results. MLIP believes, however, that there are certain
market conditions, for example, markets with strong price trends, in which the
Fund has a better likelihood of being profitable than in others.
Results of Operations - General
- -------------------------------
MLIP believes that multi-Advisor futures funds should be regarded as
medium- to long-term investments but, unlike an operating business, it is
difficult to identify "trends" in the Fund's operations and virtually impossible
to make any predictions regarding future results based on results to date.
Markets in which sustained price trends occur with some frequency tend
to be more favorable to managed futures investments than "whipsaw," "choppy"
markets, but (i) this is not always the case, (ii) it is impossible to predict
when trending markets will occur and (iii) different Advisors are affected
differently by trends in general as well as by particular types of trends.
The Fund controls credit risk in its trading in the derivatives
markets by trading only through Merrill Lynch entities which MLIP believes to be
creditworthy. The Fund attempts to control the market risk inherent in its
derivatives trading by utilizing a multi-advisor, multi-strategy structure. This
structure purposefully attempts to diversify the Fund's Advisor group among
different strategy types and market sectors in an effort to reduce risk
(although the Fund's portfolio currently emphasizes technical and trend-
following approaches).

Importance of Market Factors
- ----------------------------
Comparisons between the Fund's performance in a given period in one
fiscal year to the same period in a prior year are unlikely to be meaningful,
given the uncertainty of price movements in the markets traded by the Fund. In
general, MLIP expects that the Fund is most likely to trade successfully in
markets which exhibit strong and sustained price trends. The current Advisor
group emphasizes technical and trend-following methods. Consequently, one would
expect that in trendless, "choppy" markets the Fund would likely be
unprofitable, while in markets in which major price movements occur, the Fund
would have its best profit potential (although there could be no assurance that
the Fund would, in fact, trade profitably). However, trend-followers not
infrequently will miss major price movements, and market corrections can result
in rapid and material losses (sometimes as much as 5% in a single day). Although
MLIP monitors market conditions and Advisor performance on an ongoing basis in
overseeing the Fund's trading, MLIP does not attempt to "market forecast" or to
"match" trading styles with predicted market conditions. Rather, MLIP
concentrates on quantitative and qualitative analysis of prospective Advisors,
as well as on statistical studies of the historical performance parameters of
different Advisor combinations in selecting Advisors and allocating and
reallocating Fund assets among them.
Because managed futures advisors' strategies are proprietary and
confidential and market movements unpredictable, selecting advisors to implement
speculative trading strategies involves considerable uncertainty. Furthermore,
the concentration of the Fund's current Advisor portfolio, both in terms of the
number of managers retained and the common emphasis of their strategies on
technical and trend-following methods, increases the risk that unexpectedly bad
performance, turbulent market conditions or a combination of the two will result
in significant losses.
MLIP's Advisor Selections
- -------------------------
MLIP has no timetable or schedule for making Advisor changes or
reallocations, and generally intends to make a medium- to long-term commitment
to all Advisors selected. However, there can be no assurance as to the frequency
or number of the Advisor changes which may take place in the future, or as to
how long any of the current Advisors will continue to manage assets for the
Fund.
Liquidity
- ---------
Most of the Partnership's assets are held as cash which, in turn, is
used to margin its futures positions and earn interest income and is withdrawn,
as necessary, to pay redemptions and fees.
The futures contracts in which the Partnership trades may become
illiquid under certain market conditions. Commodity exchanges limit fluctuations
in futures prices during a single day by regulations referred to as "daily
limits." During a single day no trades may be executed at prices beyond the
daily limit. Once the price of a futures contract for a particular commodity has
increased or decreased by an amount equal to the daily limit, positions in the
commodity can generally neither be taken nor liquidated unless traders are
willing to effect trades at or within the limit. Futures contracts have
occasionally moved to the daily limit for several consecutive days with little
or no trading. Such market conditions could prevent the Partnership from
promptly liquidating its futures (including its options) positions. There are no
limitations on the daily price moves in trading foreign currency forward
contracts through banks, although illiquidity may develop in the forward markets
due to large spreads between "bid" and "ask" prices quoted. (Forward contracts
are the bank version of currency futures contracts and are not traded on
exchanges.)
Capital Resources
- -----------------
The Partnership does not have, nor does it expect to have, any capital
assets and has no material commitments for capital expenditures. The Partnership
uses its assets to supply the necessary margin or premiums for, and to pay any
losses incurred in connection with, its trading activity and to pay redemptions
and fees.
Inflation is not a significant factor in the Fund's profitability,
although inflationary cycles can give rise to the type of major price movements
which can have a materially favorable or adverse impact on the Fund's
performance.
