Ladies and Gentlemen:
We were previously principal accountants for Union Bankshares Corporation and,
under the date of February 9, 1999, except as to Note 14, which was as of
February 11, 1999, we reported on the consolidated financial statements of Union
Bankshares Corporation and subsidiaries as of and for the years ended December
31, 1998 and 1997. On October 1, 1999, our appointment as principal accountants
was terminated. We have read Union Bankshares Corporation's statements included
under Item 4 of its Form 8-K dated October 4, 1999, and we agree with such
statements, except that we are not in a position to agree or disagree with Union
Bankshares Corporation's statement that Yount, Hyde & Barbour, P.C. was selected
by the audit committee or that the change was approved by the board of
directors.
Very truly yours,
/s/ KPMG LLP
