Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations

Results of Operations
     
Net income for the quarter ended March 31, 1998, was $680,720, or $12.41 per
share, a decrease of $2,182 or .5%, compared to $683,902, or $12.44 per share,
for the corresponding period in 1997.  This decrease was primarily the result
of higher noninterest expense which more than offset increases in net interest
income and noninterest income.

Net interest income for the quarter ended March 31, 1998, was $2,368,479, an
increase of $183,243 over the corresponding period in the prior year.  The
following table sets forth a summary of the changes in interest earned and
interest paid resulting from changes in volume and changes in rates: 

                                              Increase (Decrease) 
                                                Due to Change In 
                                           Average      Average       Total
(In thousands)                             Balance        Rate       Change
Interest income                               678         (13)         665
Interest expense                              393          89          482
                                              ---        -----         ---
Net interest income                           285        (102)         183

This increase in net interest income is primarily attributable to higher volume
which offset a decrease in interest rate spread.  Average earning assets during
the first quarter of 1998 increased by $34.35 million and average
interest-bearing liabilities increased by $32.4 million compared to the first
quarter of 1997.  The Company's average interest rate spread was 3.21% during
the first quarter of 1998 compared to 3.46% during the quarter ended March 31,
1997.  The yield on earning assets decreased by ten basis points while the cost
of funds increased by fifteen basis points.
      
In the first quarter of 1998 the Company's provision for credit losses was
$82,500 compared to $87,000 for the first quarter of 1997.  Net charge-offs
were $515 in the first quarter of 1998 compared to net charge-offs of $8,364
during the first quarter of 1997.  

Noninterest income for the three months ended March 31, 1998, was $225,421, an
increase of $44,589 over the corresponding period in 1997.  This increase is
primarily the result of an increase of $41,120 in commissions from the sales of
annuities, mutual funds, and property insurance. 

Noninterest expense increased by $236,922 or 18% during the three months ended
March 31, 1998, over the corresponding period in 1997.  Salaries and benefits
expense increased $142,300 or 16% over the corresponding period in 1997.  This
increase is primarily attributed to the hiring of ten full-time equivalent
staff members and regular salary increases.  Amortization of intangibles
expense increased by $48,037 as a result of the write-down of intangible assets
related to the acquisition of the branch bank.  Data processing expense
increased by $20,453.  Approximately $15,000 of this increase is attributable
to purchases of software used primarily to automate the loan origination
process.  Occupancy expenses increased by $13,443 primarily as a result of the
additional branch location.    

Return on average assets in the first quarter of 1998 was 1.09%, compared to
1.29% for the corresponding period in 1997.  Return on average equity in the
first quarter of 1998 was 9.7%, compared to 10.4% for the corresponding period
in the prior year.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations

Financial Condition
    
Total assets decreased by $406,716 between December 31, 1997, and March 31,
1998.  Federal funds sold and cash and due from banks decreased by $3,079,487
during the quarter ended March 31, 1998.  Net loans increased by $2,643,208
during the first quarter. 

The allowance for credit losses increased by $81,985 during the quarter ended
March 31, 1998.  The allowance equals 1.44% of total loans at March 31, 1998,
compared to 1.42% at December 31, 1997.  Nonaccrual loans totaled $4,912,693 at
March 31, 1998, an increase of $244,986 over December 31, 1997.  The Company's
 ratio of loans more than 30 days past due (including nonaccrual loans) to
total loans was 3.4% at March 31, 1998, compared  to 3.3% at December 31, 1997.

Demand deposits decreased $2,858,413 or 14.7% during the first quarter of 1998.
Interest bearing deposits increased by $2,242,230 or 1.3% between December 31,
1997, and March 31, 1998.  Total deposits decreased $616,183 or .3% during the
three month period ended March 31, 1998.  Management attributes the decrease in
demand deposits to a normal seasonal fluctuation.

Stockholders' equity increased by $392,100 to $28,131,174 as of March 31, 1998.
As of March 31, 1998, the Company's leverage ratio was 10.1%, the risk-based
core capital ratio was 14.6% and the risk-based total capital ratio was 15.9%.
The Company and the Bank continue to maintain capital levels well above the
regulatory minimum levels. 

On March 16, 1998, the Company's board of directors declared a semiannual $6.25
per share dividend payable on July 1, 1998, to all shareholders of record on
June 9, 1998. 

Liquidity

Liquidity refers to the ability of the Company to generate adequate amounts of
cash to meet the Company's needs for cash.  Cash and cash equivalents decreased
by $1.9 million during the first quarter of 1998.  Loan repayments as well as
net cash provided by operating activities amounting to $991,729 and a reduction
of federal funds sold of $1,221,000 were the major sources of funds during the
first quater of 1998.  The net increase in loans of $2,725,708, the net
decrease in deposits of $616,183, the net decrease in other borrowed funds of
$514,084 and the dividend paid of $329,262 were the major uses of cash during
the first three months. 

In addition to on-balance sheet sources of funds the Company also has
off-balance sheet sources available to meet liquidity needs.  The Company has
unused lines of credit of $21 million as of March 31, 1998.  Management
believes the Company's liquidity position as of March 31, 1998, is adequate
under current economic conditions.
