Ladies and Gentlemen:
Re: Rule 24f-2 Opinion
------------------
I have been requested to render an opinion in connection with the filing by
Brundage, Story and Rose Investment Trust (herein referred to as the "Trust") of
a Rule 24f-2 Notice with respect to the fiscal year ended November 30, 1996 (the
"Notice").
Reference is made to paragraph 10 of such Notice, wherein the Trust reports the
sale of 430,192 shares of its Brundage, Story and Rose Short/Intermediate Term
Fixed-Income Fund and 157,706 shares of its Brundage, Story and Rose Equity Fund
during the fiscal year ended November 30, 1996 in reliance upon registration
under the Securities Act of 1933 pursuant to Rule 24f-2 under the Investment
Company Act of 1940, and paragraph 11 of such Notice, wherein the Trust reports
the issuance of 152,952 shares of its Brundage, Story and Rose
Short/Intermediate Term Fixed-Income Fund and 85,211 shares of its Brundage,
Story and Rose Equity Fund in connection with dividend reinvestment plans.
I have examined the Agreement and Declaration of Trust of the Trust as amended
to date, the Bylaws of the Trust, records of the Trust concerning certain
actions by the Trustees of the Trust, the current Prospectus of the Trust and
supplements thereto, and the form of the Rule 24f-2 Notice.
Based upon the foregoing and assuming that all of such shares were sold in
accordance with the terms of the Prospectus in effect at the time of sale, in my
opinion the above-mentioned shares of the Trust have been legally issued and are
fully paid and non-assessable by the Trust.
I consent to the submission of a copy of this opinion to the Securities and
Exchange Commission in connection with the filing of the Trust's Rule 24f-2
Notice for the fiscal year ended November 30, 1996, as contemplated in Rule
24f-2(b)(1) under the Investment Company Act of 1940.
Very truly yours,
