RE: First Prairie U.S. Government Income Fund (the "Fund")
Gentlemen:
Pursuant to Rule 477 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1933, it is
requested that the 485(b) Post-Effective Amendment Registration Statement No.
4 electronically filed on May 12, 1994 be withdrawn as the effectiveness date
on Form N-1A was incorrect. The 485(b) filing of Post-Effective Amendment
No. 4 was refiled on May 12, 1994.
Very truly yours,
Elizabeth Larkin
