                        Amendment #1 to 1998 Form 10-KSB


     The Registrant hereby amends Part II, Item 7, Financial Statements, of its
1998 Form 10-KSB to reflect a change in the Report of Independent Public
Accountants to include the name and address of the independent accounting firm
which opined on the financial statements (which was inadvertently omitted from
the original filing) as well as a revised footnote #18 dealing with Year 2000
issues. The original footnote #18 did not include historical and estimated
costs as of the balance sheet date for Year 2000 issues. In addition, the
original footnote #18 did not include a description of the Registrant's most
reasonably likely worse case Year 2000 scenario and the measures taken by the
Registrant to prepare for such a scenario.

ITEM 7.  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                          INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

The Board of Directors
Heritage Financial Services, Inc.

We have audited the consolidated balance sheets of Heritage Financial Services,
Inc. and Subsidiary as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the related
consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders' equity, and cash
flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1998. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits 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. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Heritage Financial
Services, Inc. and Subsidiary as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the
consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the
three years in the period ended December 31, 1998, in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.

                HERITAGE FINANCIAL SERVICES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
              NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, CONTINUED

(18)     YEAR 2000 ISSUES

         The approach of the year 2000 presents problems to computer users such
         as the Company. Many computer systems in use today, particularly older
         computers and computer programs, may not be able to properly interpret
         dates after December 31, 1999 because they use only two digits to
         indicate the year in a date. For example, the year 2000 could be
         interpreted as the year 1900 by such systems. As a result, the systems
         could produce inaccurate data, or not function at all.

         The Company depends upon a significant number of computer software
         programs and operating systems to conduct its business, many of which
         are provided by third-party private and public vendors, including our
         primary software vendor and service bureau, Fiserv Solutions, Inc.
         ("Fiserv"). We can receive information from the FDIC regarding Fiserv's
         year 2000 readiness based on its examinations. However, for vendors
         which are not examined by the FDIC or other regulators, we must rely
         on those vendors' representations regarding year 2000 readiness and
         the validation testing that we are able to perform.

         Accordingly, the Company has developed a comprehensive plan to ensure
         that all of its mission critical systems are able to properly deal
         with the year 2000. The Company has tested each system's ability to
         properly perform and corrective measures have been implemented. A
         contingency and business resumption plan has been formulated in the
         event that primary systems are unable to operate. The Company has also
         made arrangements for additional liquidity in the event that customers
         choose to withdraw extra funds. At this point, the Company anticipates
         no difficulty in achieving full year 2000 capability or meeting
         customer demands and does not expect the related costs to be material.

         As a financial institution, the Company is also exposed to potential
         risks if borrowers and depositors suffer year 2000 related difficulties
         and are unable to repay their loans or maintain their deposit balances.
         The Company has performed an assessment of the year 2000 readiness of
         significant borrowers and depositors. At this time, the Company is
         unable to determine what impact, if any, the year 2000 will have on
         either the loan payment performance of borrowers or the balances of key
         depositors.

         We believe that our most reasonably possible worst-case scenario would
         occur if we experienced a complete loss of Fiserv services and its
         contingency plans failed to work properly. This could potentially
         affect our ability to handle daily banking business for our customers
         in the first two quarters of 2000. If we determined that Fiserv was
         unable to meet processing requirements on a timely basis, we would
         utilize alternative back-up processing systems. This could result in
         lost revenue, increased operating costs, the loss of customers, or
         other business interruptions, any of which could adversely affect
         results of operations and financial condition.

         During 1998 the Company expended approximately $43,000 in connection
         with identifying, evaluating and addressing year 2000 compliance
         issues. Most of these costs were to replace or upgrade noncompliant
         equipment and software. The Company expects to incur approximately
         $82,000 in additional costs during 1999.
