This statement amends and supplements the information set forth in the
First Amendment to the Schedule 13G (the "Schedule 13G" and, together with the
First Amendment, "Amendment No. 1") filed by the Reporting Persons as (defined
therein) with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 14, 1997, and
constitutes Amendment No. 2 to the Schedule 13G ("Amendment No. 2").
Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meaning ascribed
to such terms in the Schedule 13G. This Amendment No. 2 is being filed to amend
Items 2(a), 4, 5 and 6 (as of December 31, 1997) contained in Amendment No. 1.
Item 2 (a) Name of Person Filing: This statement is being filed by:
a. Strome-Susskind Investment Management, L.P. ("SSIM")
b. SSCO, Inc. ("SSCO"); and
c. Mark E. Strome ("Strome")
collectively the "Reporting Persons".
SSIM is a Delaware limited partnership and a registered investment
adviser. SSIM is the sole general partner of and investment adviser
to an investment limited partnership that directly owns shares of
common stock of LaSalle Re Holdings Limited (the "Stock"). SSIM is
also the investment adviser to an offshore investment corporation
that directly owns shares of the Stock.
SSCO is the sole general partner of SSIM. The Mark E. Strome Living
Trust, dated 01/16/97 (the "Trust") is the controlling shareholder
of SSCO. Mark E. Strome is the settlor and a trustee of the Trust.
SSIM's beneficial ownership of the Stock is direct because of its
general partnership interest in the investment limited partnership
that directly owns shares of the Stock. SSIM also has direct
beneficial ownership of the Stock as a result of its discretionary
authority to buy, sell and vote shares of such Stock for its
investment advisory clients (i.e., the investment limited
partnership and the investment corporation (collectively referred to
hereinafter as the "Entities")). As of December 31, 1997, the
Entities held 90,200 shares of the common stock of LaSalle Re
Holdings Limited ("Stock"). In addition, the offshore investment
corporation also holds presently exercisable options to acquire an
additional 40,905 shares of Stock. Therefore, the Entities
beneficially own 131,105 shares of Stock (computed in accordance
with Rule 13d-3(d)(1) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended). Based upon LaSalle Re Holdings Limited's Form 10-Q dated
February 3, 1998, as of December 31, 1997, the Entities beneficially
owned approximately 0.9% of the common stock of LaSalle Re Holdings
Limited (similarly computed).
<PAGE>
Page 6 of 11
SSCO's and Strome's beneficial ownership are indirect as a result of
their ownership of SSIM, and is reported solely because Rule 13d-
1(a) and (b) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended (the "Exchange Act"), requires any person who is
"directly or indirectly" the beneficial owner of more than five
percent of any equity security of a specific class to file a
Schedule 13G within the specific time period. The answers on blocks
6, 8, 9 and 11 on pages 3 and 4 above and in response to item 4 by
SSCO and Strome are given on the basis of the "indirect" beneficial
ownership referred to in such Rule, based on the direct beneficial
ownership of the Stock by SSIM and the relationship of SSCO and
Strome to SSIM.
Information with respect to each Reporting Person is given solely by
the respective Reporting Person, and no Reporting Person undertakes
hereby any responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of such
information concerning any other Reporting Person.
Item 4. Ownership:
(a) Amount Beneficially Owned: Reporting Persons each directly or
indirectly beneficially own 131,105 shares of Stock. Based on
LaSalle Re Holdings Limited's Form 10-Q dated February 3, 1998, it
has 15,165,259 shares of Common Stock outstanding. Accordingly, the
Reporting Persons directly or indirectly beneficially own 0.9% of
the outstanding Common Stock of LaSalle Re Holdings Limited. The
Entities' and SSIM's beneficial ownership is direct and SSCO's and
Strome's beneficial ownership is indirect.
(b) Percent of Class: 0.9%
(c) Number of shares as to which such person has:
(i) sole power to vote or to direct the vote: 0
(ii) shared power to vote or to direct the vote:
The Reporting Persons share with each other the power to vote all
131,105 shares of Stock for which they have direct or indirect
beneficial ownership. No other person has the power to vote such
shares.
(iii) sole power to dispose or to direct the disposition of : 0
(iv) shared power to dispose or to direct the disposition of:
<PAGE>
Page 7 of 11
The Reporting Persons share with each other the power to dispose of
all 131,105 shares for which they have direct or indirect beneficial
ownership. They do not share this power with any other person.
Item 5. Ownership of Five Percent or Less of a Class:
If this statement is being filed to report the fact that as of the
date hereof the reporting person[s] ha[ve] ceased to be the
beneficial owner[s] of more than five percent of the class of
securities, check the following [X].
Item 6. Ownership of More than Five Percent on Behalf of Another Person:
Not Apllicable.
Item 10. Certification:
By signing below I certify that, to the best of my knowledge and
belief, the securities referred to above were acquired in the
ordinary course of business and were not acquired for the purpose of
and do not have the effect of changing or influencing the control of
the issuer of such securities and were not acquired in connection
with or as a participant in any transaction having such purpose or
effect.
After reasonable inquiry and to the best of my knowledge and belief,
I certify that the information set forth in this statement is true,
complete and correct.

Exhibit C
Identification and Classification of Subsidiary Which
Acquired Security Being Reported On By the Parent Holding Company
SSIM, a registered investment adviser, acquired "beneficial ownership" of the
securities being reported on as a result of its discretionary authority to
acquire, dispose and (with respect to certain of such securities) vote the
securities being reported on. Under a series of SEC no-action letters,
including the letter issued to Warren Buffet and Berkshire Hathaway, Inc.
(available December 18, 1987), SSCO and Strome are each considered the
equivalent of a parent holding company of SSIM and are therefore eligible to
report their indirect beneficial ownership in such shares on Schedule 13G.
