Dear Sirs:
Legg Mason Global Trust, Inc. (the "Company") is a corporation organized
under the laws of the State of Maryland by Articles of Incorporation dated
December 31, 1992. We understand that the Company is about to file a Rule
24f-2 Notice pursuant to Rule 24f-2 under the Investment Company Act of 1940,
as amended, for the purpose of making definite the number of shares par value
$0.001 per share ( shares"), in the following three series: Legg Mason Global
Government Trust, Legg Mason International Equity Trust, and Legg Mason
Emerging Markets Trust, which it has registered under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended, and which were sold during the fiscal year ended December
31, 1996.
We have, as counsel, participated in various corporate and other matters
relating to the Company. We have examined copies of the Articles of
Incorporation and By-Laws, as now in effect, and the minutes of meetings of
the directors and other documents relating to the organization and operation
of the Company, and we are generally familiar with its affairs. Based on the
foregoing, it is our opinion that the shares of capital stock of the Company
sold during the fiscal year ended December 31, 1996, the registration of which
will be made definite by the filing of a Rule 24f-2 Notice, were legally
issued, fully paid and non-assessable. We express no opinion as to compliance
with the 1933 Act, the Investment Company Act of 1940 or applicable state
securities laws in connection with the sale of shares of capital stock.
We hereby consent to this opinion accompanying the Rule 24f-2 Notice
which you are about to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We
also consent to the reference to our firm under the caption "The Fund's Legal
Counsel" in the statement of additional information
