Item 2.  Acquisition or Disposition of Assets

On June 30, 1995, Jack Henry & Associates, Inc. (the "Company") purchased the
community banking business unit of Broadway & Seymour, Inc. ("BSI").  The
acquisition was effected by the purchase of all of the issued and outstanding
capital stock of Liberty Software, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of BSI.  The
total consideration to be paid by the Company is $12 million.

The Stock Purchase Agreement (the "Agreement") and ancillary agreements between
the Company and BSI provide for certain management services to be provided to
the Company by BSI over the 12 months following the purchase and provide for
certain marketing rights which the Company will grant to BSI.  All of BSI's
contracts with its community banking customers will be assumed by the Company

458913.V
HEN25/72567

and BSI will gain access to the Company's customers to market other products. 
Many of the BSI's community banking employees will remain with Liberty, which
will be operated as the Liberty division of the Company.
The Company believes that the addition of BSI's community banking clients will
be a good fit with the Company's core business in community banking and that the
combined customer base of the Company and BSI may expect to see a wider array of
products and services from both companies.

Item 7.  Financial Statements and Exhibits

     (a) and (b)    Financial Statements and Pro Forma Financial Information. 
                    It is impractical to provide required financial statements
                    or pro forma financial information at this time.  Such
                    financial statements and information will be filed as soon
                    as they become available, which is expected to be no later
                    than September 15, 1995.
