considered the factors set forth in the Portfolio's 10f-3 procedures.

                        Report of Independent Accountants

To the Investors and Trustees of
The Diversified Portfolio



In  planning  and  performing  our  audit  of the  financial  statements  of The
Diversified  Portfolio  (the  "Portfolio")  for the year ended June 30, 1999, we
considered its internal control,  including control  activities for safeguarding
securities,  in order to determine  our auditing  procedures  for the purpose of
expressing  our  opinion  on the  financial  statements  and to comply  with the
requirements of Form N-SAR, not to provide assurance on internal control.

The management of the Portfolio is responsible for  establishing and maintaining
internal control. In fulfilling this responsibility,  estimates and judgments by
management  are  required to assess the expected  benefits and related  costs of
controls.  Generally,  controls  that are  relevant  to an audit  pertain to the
entity's objective of preparing financial  statements for external purposes that
are  fairly   presented  in  conformity  with  generally   accepted   accounting
principles.   Those  controls   include  the   safeguarding  of  assets  against
unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition.

Because of inherent  limitations in internal control,  errors or fraud may occur
and not be detected.  Also,  projection of any evaluation of internal control 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 internal control would not necessarily disclose all matters
in  internal   control  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 one or more
of the internal control components does not reduce to a relatively low level the
risk  that  misstatements  caused  by error or fraud 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 internal control and its operation,



<PAGE>


including controls for safeguarding securities,  that we consider to be material
weaknesses as defined above as of June 30, 1999.

This report is intended solely for the information and use of management and the
Trustees of the Portfolio and the Securities and Exchange Commission.
