Ladies and Gentlemen:
We were previously principal accountants for Central Illinois

reported on the consolidated financial statements of Central Illinois
Financial Co., Inc. and subsidiaries as of and for the year ended December
31, 1995. We also reported on the combination of the consolidated
financial statements as of December 31, 1994 and for the two years then
ended, after restatement for the 1995 pooling of interests. We had
previously reported on the consolidated financial statements of
BankIllinois Financial Co. and subsidiary as of December 31, 1994 and for
the two years then ended, prior to their restatement for the 1995 pooling
of interests. On July 30, 1996, our appointment as principal accountants
was terminated. We have read CIFCI's statements included under Item 4 of
its Form 8-K dated July 30, 1996, and we agree with such statements, except
that:
i. we are not in a position to agree or disagree with CIFCI's stated
reason for changing principal accountants,
ii. we are not in a position to agree or disagree with CIFCI's
statement that the change was recommended and approved by the
Audit Committee, and
iii. we are not in a position to agree or disagree with the statement
that McGladrey & Pullen, LLP was not consulted regarding either
the application of accounting principles to a specified
transaction or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered
on CIFCI's consolidated financial statements.
Very truly yours,
/s/ KPMG Peat Marwick LLP
