To the Trustees of
The Pierpont Money Market Fund


In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements of The Pierpont
Money Market Fund (the "Fund"), a separate series of The Pierpont Funds, for the
year ended  November 30, 1995, we  considered  its internal  control  structure,
including  procedures  for  safeguarding  securities,  in order to determine our
auditing  procedures for the purposes of expressing our opinion on the financial
statements and to comply with the requirements of Form N-SAR, and not to provide
assurance on the internal control structure.

The management of the Fund is responsible  for  establishing  and maintaining an
internal control  structure.  In fulfilling this  responsibility,  estimates and
judgments by management are required to assess the expected benefits and related
costs  of  internal  control  structure  policies  and  procedures.  Two  of the
objectives  of an internal  control  structure  are to provide  management  with
reasonable,   but  not  absolute,   assurance  that  assets  are   appropriately
safeguarded   against  loss  from  unauthorized  use  or  disposition  and  that
transactions  are executed in accordance  with  management's  authorization  and
recorded  properly to permit  preparation of financial  statements in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles.

Because of inherent  limitations in any internal  control  structure,  errors or
irregularities  may  occur  and may not be  detected.  Also,  projection  of any
evaluation of the structure to future periods is subject to the risk that it may
become inadequate  because of changes in conditions or that the effectiveness of
the design and operation may deteriorate.

Our  consideration  of the  internal  control  structure  would not  necessarily
disclose all matters in the internal  control  structure  that might be material
weaknesses  under standards  established by the American  Institute of Certified
Public  Accountants.  A material  weakness is a condition in which the design or
operation of the specific internal control structure elements does not reduce to
a relatively  low level the risk that errors or  irregularities  in amounts that
would be  material in relation to the  financial  statements  being  audited may
occur and not be  detected  within a timely  period by  employees  in the normal
course of performing  their  assigned  functions.  However,  we noted no matters
involving the internal control structure,  including procedures for safeguarding
securities,  that we consider to be material  weaknesses  as defined above as of
November 30, 1995.
