January 27, 1995, Amendment No. 4 thereto, dated March 14, 1995, and Amendment
No. 5 thereto, dated December 5, 1995, is supplemented with the following
information. Such Schedule 13D, as so amended, is hereafter referred to as the
"1990 13D." This first electronically filed Amendment restates the 1990 13D as
of May 29, 1998, in accordance with Rule 13d-2(c).
Item 1. Security and Issuer
Common Stock, par value of $0.10, of Unitrin, Inc., One East Wacker Drive,
Chicago, Illinois, 60601 (the "Issuer").
Item 2. Identity and Background
(a) Henry E. Singleton
(b) 335 N. Maple Drive, Suite 177
Beverly Hills, CA 90210
(c) Rancher and Investor
335 N. Maple Drive, Suite 177
Beverly Hills, CA 90210
(d) No reportable proceedings.
(e) No reportable proceedings.
(f) United States citizen.
Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration
The Form 10 of Issuer filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
registering Issuer's common stock pursuant to Section 12(g) of the Securities
and Exchange Act of 1934, became effective on April 17, 1990. On April 20, 1990,
Teledyne, Inc., the Issuer's former parent company ("Teledyne"), completed the
spin-off of Issuer by distributing to Teledyne shareholders all of the
outstanding common stock of Issuer on the basis of one share of Issuer for each
share of Teledyne. With the exception of 320 shares received by inheritance in
1994, I received all the shares reported herein pursuant to that distribution.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction
I received my pro rata portion of the Issuer's shares as a distribution on
my Teledyne shares, which I acquired in 1960. (See Item 3 above.) Although I
personally have no plans or proposals reportable pursuant to Item 4(a) through
(j), it should be noted that I am a member of the Issuer's Board of Directors,
and in that capacity, could have occasion to consider such plans or proposals.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer
I own 7,242,260 shares of the Issuer's common stock, representing 17.5% of
the total shares outstanding. I have sole voting and dispositive power with
respect to my shares. My percentage interest in the Issuer's outstanding shares
of common stock has decreased by more than one percent since Amendment No. 5 to
my 1990 13D due to shares of the Issuer's common stock that are issuable in
connection with the Issuer's acquisition of The Reliable Life Insurance Company
effective May 29, 1998.
Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect
Securities of the Issuer.
See response to Item 4.
Item 7. Material to be Filed as Exhibits.
No exhibits are filed with this amendment and no exhibits were filed with
the 1990 13D.
Signature
After reasonable inquiry and to the best of my knowledge and belief, I
certify that the information set forth in this statement is true, complete and
correct.
Date: June 5, 1998 /s/ Henry E. Singleton
