REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and
liabilities, including the schedule of investments, and the related
statements of operations snd of changes in net assets, present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of The
AH&H Partners Fund Limited Partnership (the partnership) at
December 31, 1996, the results of its operations and the changes in
its net assets for each of the periods indicated, in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Partnership's management;
our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance
with generally accepted auditing standards which require that we
plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about
whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.
An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing
the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, and evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation.
We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of
securities at December 31, 1996 by correspondence with the
custodian, provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed
above.

AH&H PARTNERS FUND LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
Notes to Financial Statements
For three months ending December 31, 1996
1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The AH&H Partners Fund Limited Partnership(the "Partnership")was
organized June 8,1990 as a Massachusetts limited partnership and
is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission as a
closed-end, non-diversified management investment company. The
Agreement of Limited Partnership was amended and restated on
September 13,1990, April 1,1992 and January 1,1996. The Partner-
ship operates under the Investment Company Act of 1940(the "1940 Act")
as an interval fund. The Partnership's interests are not registered
under the Securities Act of 1933.
Adams, Harkness & Hill, Inc., a Massachusetts Corporation, serves as
Managing General Partner. The Managing General Partner must maintain
a capital account balance equal to the lesser of 1% of the sum of all
the positive capital account balances of all the Partners or the
greater of $500,000 or 0.2% of the sum of the positive capital account
balances of all the Partners.
The policies described below are followed consistently by the Partner-
ship in preparation of its financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.
Security Valuation
Portfolio securities which are traded on U.S. stock exchanges are
valued at the most recent sale price reported on the exchange on
which the security is traded most extensively. If no sale occurred,
the security is valued at the mean between the closing bid and asked
prices. Securities for which market quotations are not readily
available are valued at "fair value" as determined in good faith by
the general partner.
Securities Sold Short
The Partnership is engaged in selling securities short, which
obligates the Partnership to replace a security borrowed by purchas-
ing the same security at current market value. The Partnership would
incur a loss if the price of the security increases between the date
of the short sale and the date on which the Partnership replaces the
borrowed security. The Partnership would realize a gain if the price
of the security declines between those dates.
Securities Transactions and Investment Income
Securities transactions are recorded on a trade-date basis. Securities
gains or losses are determined on the identified cost basis. Dividend
income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income, includ-
ing original issue discount, where applicable, is recorded on an accrual
basis, except for bonds trading "flat", in which case interest is recorded
when received.

tax returns.
2 - INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENTS & TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATED PERSONS
The Partnership has an investment advisory agreement with the
Managing General Partner. Certain individuals who are executive
officers and directors of the Managing General Partner are also
Limited Partners of the Partnership.
For the year ended December 31, 1996, the Managing
General Partner received fees of $89,212 for investment and
advisory services under the agreement. The fee is paid quarterly
with an annual fee basis of 1%. In addition, the Partnership

allocation for the year ended December 31, 1996.
