RE:     PC&J  PRESERVATION  FUND,  FILES  NOS.  2-95285  AND  811-4204
        --------------------------------------------------------------

Dear  Sir  or  Madam:

     On  March  9,  2004,  the  PC&J  Preservation Fund, a registered investment
company (the "Trust") submitted, via electronic filing, a registration statement
withdraw request (Form Type RW) in accordance with Rule 477 under the Securities
Act  of  1933,  as amended.  The Accession Number was 0000760692-04-000016. Such
withdraw request was inadvertently filed under the wrong registration number (it
was  filed  under  the  above-referenced file numbers but should have been filed
under  File  No.  333-113191).  We  hereby request, on behalf of the Trust, that
such  withdraw  request  be disregarded.  If you have any questions or comments,
please  contact  JoAnn  M.  Strasser  at  (513)  352-6725.

                                   Very  truly  yours,

                                        /s/

                                   THOMPSON  HINE  LLP
