                             March 31, 1997 AND 1996



1.  The accompanying financial statements are unaudited.  However in the
opinion of management, they contain the adjustments ( all of which are normal
and recurring in nature) necessary to present fairly the financial position
and the results of operations.  The notes to the financial statements
contained in the annual report for December 31, 1996, should be read in
conjunction with these financial statements.

2.  The provision for income taxes is at a rate which management believes will
approximate the effective rate for the year.

3.  Effective January 1, 1995, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
114, "Accounting by creditors for Impairment of a Loan", as amended by
Statement No. 118, was adopted by the Corporation.  This Statement requires
recognition of impairment of a loan when it is probable that principal and
interest are not collectible in accordance with the terms of the loan
agreement.  Measurement of impairment is based upon the present value of
expected cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate, or as a
practical expedient, at the loan's market price or the fair value of the
collateral, if known.  At March 31, 1997, the corporation did not have any
impaired loans which met the criteria of Statement No. 114.

4.  Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 1997
presentation.

                     Results of Holding Company Operations
        ---------------------------------------------------------------

          First West Virginia Bancorp, Inc., a West Virginia corporation
headquartered in Wheeling, West Virginia commenced operations in July, 1973
and has three wholly-owned subsidiaries:  Progressive Bank, N.A., which
operates in Wheeling, Wellsburg, and Moundsville, West Virginia;  Progressive
Bank, N.A.- Buckhannon which operates in Buckhannon and Weston, West Virginia;
and Progressive Bank, N.A. - Bellaire in Bellaire, Ohio. Following is a
discussion and analysis of the significant changes in the financial condition
and results of operations of First West Virginia Bancorp, Inc., (the Holding
Company), and its subsidiaries for the three months ended March 31, 1997 and
1996.  This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the
Consolidated Financial Statements, Notes, and tables contained in this report,
as well as with the Holding Company's 1996 financial statements, the notes
thereto and the related Management's Discussion and Analysis.

OVERVIEW

          The Holding Company reported net income of $476,607 for the three
months  ended March 31, 1997 as compared to $374,361 for the same period
during 1996.  The increase in earnings during 1997 over 1996 can be primarily
attributed to increased  net interest income and noninterest income offset in
part by increased operating  expenses and the provision for loan losses.  
Earnings per share were $.59 in 1997,  a increase of 25.5% over the $.47
earned in 1996. 

          Return on average assets (ROA) measures the effectiveness of asset 
utilization to produce net income.  For the three month period ended March 31,
1997, the ROA was 1.31%, up from 1.16% during the same period in 1996.  Return
on average  equity (ROE) measures the return on the stockholders' investment. 
The ROE was 14.99%  for the three months ended March 31, 1997 and 12.69% at
March 31, 1996. 

          Net interest income increased $154,005 during the first quarter of
1997.  Increases in the average volume of loans and the average rates earned
on investments, offset by an increase in the average volume of time deposits
primarily contributed to the increased net interest income.  The fully taxable
equivalent net interest margin  decreased to 4.83% during the first quarter of
1997 as compared to 4.96% for the same period in the prior year.

EARNINGS ANALYSIS

Net Interest Income
- -------------------

          The primary source of earnings for the Holding Company is net 
interest income, which is the difference between interest earned on loans 
and investments and interest paid on deposits and other liabilities.  
Changes in the volume and mix of earning assets and interest bearing 
liabilities combined with changes in market rates of interest greatly 
affect net interest income.  Tables Two and Three analyze the changes in 
net interest income for the three month periods ended March 31, 1997 and 1996.

          The net interest margin for the first quarter of 1997 was 4.83%, a
decrease  over the 4.90% earned at December 31, 1996 and the 4.96% earned at
March 31, 1996.   Net interest income increased $154,005 or 10.6%, during the
3 month period ended  March 31, 1997 as compared to 1996.  The increase in net
interest income resulted primarily from the increased average loan volume and
the average rates earned on investments, offset by an increase in the average
volume of time deposits.   Interest and fees on loans increased $155,436 or
9.5% during the three month  period ended March 31, 1997 as compared to the
same period in 1996 due to the  increased loan growth.  Average rates paid on
interest bearing liabilities increased from 3.5% in 1996 to 3.6% in 1997. 
Interest expense increased  $171,957 or 18.8% as compared to the same period
in 1996 primarily due to the  increase in the average volume of time deposits. 


Provision for Possible Loan Losses
- ----------------------------------

          The provision for possible loan losses is an amount added to the 
reserve against which loan losses are charged.  Management determines an 
appropriate provision based upon its evaluation of the size and the risk 
characteristics of the loan portfolio, current and anticipated economic 
conditions, specific problem loans and delinquencies, loan loss experience 
and other related factors.  

          For the quarter ended March 31, 1997, the provision for possible loan 
losses was $25,500  compared to $14,400 at March 31, 1996.  Net charge offs 
were approximately $15,000 and $(7,000) for the three month periods ended 
March 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively.  Total non-performing loans, comprised 
of past due 90 days or more, renegotiated loans, non-accrual loans, and other 
real estate owned were $582,000 at March 31, 1997 and $503,000 at March 31,
1996.  The increased loan growth combined with the increase in non-performing
assets has prompted the increase in the provision for loan losses during this
period.

Non-Interest Income
- -------------------

          Service charges represent the major component of non-interest
income.   These charges are earned from assessments made on checking and
savings accounts.  Service charges increased $10,018 or 12.3%, during the
three months ended March 31, 1997 as compared to the same period of the prior
year.

Table Two
Distribution of Assets, Liabilities and Stockholders' Equity; Interest Rates
and Interest Differential

The following table presents an average balance sheet, interest earned on
interest bearing assets, interest paid on interest bearing liabilities,
average interest rates and interest differentials for the three months ended
March 31, 1997 and March 31, 1996 and the year ended December 31, 1996. 
Average balance sheet information as of March 31, 1997 and March 31, 1996 and
the year ended December 31, 1996 was compiled using the daily average balance
sheet.  Loan fees and unearned discounts were included in income for average
rate calculation purposes.  Non-accrual loans were included in the average

Rate Volume Analysis of Changes in Interest Income and Expense
(in thousands)

The effect on interest income and interest expense for the three months ended
March  31, 1997 and March 31, 1996 due to changes in average volume and rate
from the prior year, is presented below.  The effect of a change in average
volume has been  determined by applying the average rate to the change in
volume.  The change  in rate has been determined by applying the average
volume in the earlier year  by the change in rate.  The change in interest due
to both rate and volume has been allocated to volume and rate changes in
proportion to the relationship of  the absolute dollar amounts of change in
each.

Non-Interest Income - continued
- -------------------------------

          Sales of securities by the subsidiary banks are generally limited to
the needs established under the liquidity policies.  There were no investment
securities gains or losses during the first quarter of 1997.  Securities
losses were $1,050 during the three  months ended March 31, 1996.  During
1996, the subsidiary banks accounted for the $1,050  loss on sale of
securities.

          Other operating income is comprised of fees from safe deposit box
rentals,  sales of cashier's checks and money orders, utility collections, ATM
charges and card  fees, home equity credit line fees, credit life commissions,
and credit card fees and  commissions and various other charges and fees
related to normal customer banking  relationships.  For the three month period
ended March 31, 1997 other operating income was $76,710, an increase of
$25,395 over the same period in 1996.  The increase was  primarily
attributable to a membership insurance rebate from an insurance carrier and
increased fees which were received during the first quarter of 1997.  


Non-Interest Expense
- --------------------

          Salary and employee benefits is the largest component of non-
interest expense.   During the quarter ended March 31, 1997, salary and
employee benefits increased $54,675  or 10.4%.  The increase for 1997 was
primarily attributable to the hiring of additional personnel for a subsidiary
branch office which opened in April, 1996 and normal annual  merit adjustments
in salaries.

          The major components of other operating expenses include: equipment
expense, other taxes, stationery and supplies, directors fees, service
expense, and postage and  transportation expense.  Other operating expenses
decreased $29,099, or 7.1%, for the  three month period ended March 31, 1997
as compared to the same period in the prior year.  


Income Taxes
- ------------

          Income tax expense for the three month period ended March 31,
1997 was $237,482, an increase of $51,204 over the same period in 1996.  The
increase was primarily due to the increase in pre-taxable income of $153,450.
          For federal income tax purposes, tax-exempt income is based on
qualified state, county, and municipal bonds and loans.  Tax-exempt income was
$95,034 and $85,344  for the three month period ended March 31, 1997 and 1996.

          Federal income tax rates were consistent at 34% for the quarter
ended March 31, 1997 and 1996.  West Virginia corporate net income tax rates
also were consistent at 9.0% for the three months periods ended 1997 and 1996.

Balance Sheet Analysis

Investments
- -----------

          In total, investment securities increased by $5,382,964 or 11.5%
from $46,823,797 at March 31, 1996, to $52,206,761 at March 31, 1997.  The 
increase in investment securities was attributed primarily to the increased
deposit growth from March 31, 1996 to March 31, 1997.

     The investment portfolio is managed to attempt to achieve an optimum mix
of asset quality, liquidity and maximum yield on investment.  The investment
portfolio is comprised of U.S. Treasury securities, U.S. Government
corporations and agencies securities, obligations of states and political
subdivisions, corporate debt securities, mortgage-backed securities and equity
securities. Taxable securities comprised 88.3% of total securities at March
31, 1997, as compared to 91.1% at March 31, 1996.  The corporation does not
have any issues in the investment portfolio which exceed 10% of stockholders'
equity as of March 31, 1997.  Other than the normal risks inherent in
purchasing U.S.Treasury securities, U.S. Government corporation and agencies
securities, and obligations of states and political subdivisions, i.e.
interest rate risk, management has no knowledge of other market or credit risk
involved in these investments.  The corporation does not have any high risk
hybrid/derivative instruments.

          Effective January 1, 1994, the Holding Company adopted the
provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (FAS) No. 115
"Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities."  Under FAS
No. 115, investment securities in the portfolio are classified as either
available for sale or held to maturity.  FAS 115 requires banks to classify
debt and equity securities into one of three categories: held to maturity,
available for sale, or trading.  The corporation does not currently conduct
short term purchase and sale transactions of investment securities which would
be classified as trading securities.  The initial determination of investments
classified as available for sale was based principally on the corporation's
asset liability position and potential liquidity needs.

          Investment securities that are classified available for sale are
available for sale at any time based upon management's assessment of changes
in economic or financial market conditions.  These securities are carried at
market value and the unrealized holding gains and losses, net of taxes, are
reflected as a separate component of stockholders' equity until realized.
Investment securities held to maturity are securities purchased with the
intent and ability to hold until their maturity.  Securities classified as
held to maturity are carried at cost, adjusted for amortization of premiums
and  accretion of discounts. In classifying debt securities as available for
sale,  management generally selected securities with actual maturities of two
years or less.  All other debt securities were classified as held to maturity. 
All equity securities were classified as available for sale.  Accordingly, the
presentation of investment securities on the Consolidated Balance Sheet shows
securities classified as available for sale and held to maturity as of March
31, 1997 and March 31, 1996.

          In November, 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB)
issued implementation guidance on accounting for investment securities 
on FAS No. 115. Effective November 15, 1995 the FASB permitted a one time 
opportunity for financial  institutions to reassess the appropriateness of the
classifications of all its investment securities.  Financial institutions were
allowed to transfer securities from their held to maturity portfolio to their
available for sale portfolio before calendar year end 1995, without calling
into question their intent to hold other securities to maturity.  As a result,
investment securities with an amortized cost of $18,411,939 and unrealized
loss of $112,961 were transferred from the held to maturity category to the
available for sale category in December, 1995.  As of March 31, 1997 and March
31, 1996, the corporation had approximately 88% and 89% of the investment
portfolio classified as available for sale, while 12% and 11% were classified
as held to maturity, respectively.   


          As the investment portfolio consists primarily of fixed rate debt
securities,  changes in the market rates of interest will effect the carrying
value of securities  available for sale, adjusted upward or downward under the
requirements of FAS 115.  The corporation has reduced the carrying value of
securities available for sale by $554,685 at March 31, 1997 and by $238,815 at
March 31, 1996.  The market value of securities classified as held to maturity
was below book value by $9,517 at March 31, 1997 and above book value by
$16,936 at March 31, 1996. 


Loans
- -----

          Loans increased as of March 31, 1997 as compared to March 31, 1996
as loans  outstanding increased $9,758,725 or 13.7%, to $81,032,143.  The loan
growth can be attributed primarily to increases in commercial loans,
installment loans and residential real estate loans  which increased
approximately $5,046,000, $3,478,000, and $1,713,000, respectively.  Expansion
of local businesses in the area contributed to the increase in commercial
loans.  Loan growth was funded principally through the increase in deposits.  

          The loan to deposit ratio at March 31, 1997 was 62.0% which was
higher than the 59.3% reported at March 31, 1996.  Management recognizes that
future earnings growth depends upon increasing the loan to deposit ratio. 

          Real estate residential loans which include real estate
construction, real estate farmland, and real estate residential loans comprise
thirty-seven percent (37%) of the loan portfolio. Commercial loans which
include real estate secured by non-farm, non residential and commercial and
industrial loans comprise thirty-eight percent (38%) of the loan portfolio. 
Installment loans comprise twenty-two percent (22%) of the loan portfolio. 
Other loans include nonrated industrial development obligations, direct
financing leases and other loans comprise three percent (3%) of the loan
portfolio. The changes in the composition of the loan portfolio from March 31,
1996 to March 31, 1997 were a 1% increase in commercial loans, a 2% increase
in installment loans, and a 3% decrease in real estate residential loans.

          The loan portfolio is not dominated by concentrations of credit within
any one industry; therefore, the impact of a weakening economy on any
particular industry should be minimal.  Management believes that the loan
portfolio does not contain any excessive or abnormal elements of risk.

Generally, all Banks recognize interest income on the accrual basis, except
for certain loans which are placed on a non-accrual status.  Loans are placed
on a non-accrual status, when in the opinion of management doubt exists as to
its collectibility.  In accordance with the Office of the Comptoller of the
Currency Policy, banks may not accrue interest on any loan which either the
principal or interest is past due 90 days or more unless the loan is both well
secured and in the process of collection.

The amount of interest income that would have been recognized had the loans
performed in accordance with their original terms was approximately $7,800 and
$6,000 for the periods ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively.

As of March 31, 1997, there are no loans known to management other than those
previously disclosed about which management has any information about possible
credit problems of borrowers which causes management to have serious doubts as
to the borrower's ability to comply with present loan repayment terms.

Most of the affiliate banks' loans and commitments have been granted to
customers in the banks' primary market areas of northern and central West
Virginia and eastern Ohio.  In the normal course of business, however, the
banks have purchased and originated loans outside of their primary market
areas.  The aggregate loan balances outstanding in any one geographic area,
other than the banks' primary lending areas, do not exceed 10% of total loans. 
No specific industry concentrations exceed 10% of total loans.

Loans - continued
- -----------------

          Non-performing assets consist of:  non-accrual loans on which the
collectibility of the full amount of interest is uncertain; loans which have
been renegotiated to provide for a reduction or deferral of interest on
principal because of a deterioration in the financial position of the
borrower; loans past due ninety days or more as to principal or interest; and
other real estate owned.  A summary of non performing assets is presented in
Table Eight.

          Total non-performing loans increased 15.7% to $582,000 at March 31,
1997 as compared to $503,000 at March 31, 1996.  Loans classified as non-
accrual increased $64,000 to $352,000 or .4% of total loans as of March 31,
1997, as compared to $288,000 or .4% of total loans at March 31, 1996. There
were no loans classified as renegotiated as of March 31, 1997 and 1996,
respectively.  The loans past due 90 days or more increased $30,000 to
$181,000 at March 31, 1997 as compared to $151,000 at March 31, 1996. 
Management continues to monitor the non-performing assets to ensure against
deterioration in collateral values. 

          Effective January 1, 1995, the Holding Company adopted the
provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (FAS) No. 114,
"Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan", which was subsequently
amended by FAS No. 118, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan -
Income and Recognition of Disclosures."  It is the corporation's policy not to
recognize interest on specific impaired loans unless the future loss is
remote.  Interest payments received on such loans are applied as a reduction
of the loan principal balance.  Since the adoption of FAS 114 and 118, the
corporation had no loans which management has determined to be impaired.



Allowance for Possible Loan Losses
- ----------------------------------

          The corporation maintains an allowance for possible loan losses 
to absorb probable loan losses. Table Nine presents a summary of the 
Allowance for Possible Loan Losses.  The provision for loan losses increased 
to $25,500 during the three months ended March 31, 1997, from $14,400 during 
the same period of the prior year.  The allowance for possible loan losses 
represented 1.4% and 1.6% of loans outstanding as of March 31, 1997 and March
31, 1996, respectively.  Net loan charge-offs were $15,000 an $(7,000) during 
the first quarter of 1997 and 1996.  The net charge-offs during the three 
month period ended March 31, 1997 and 1996 were primarily consumer loans.  
The ratio of loan losses to average outstanding loans at March 31, 1997 was 
 .02% compared to (.01)% for March 31, 1996.  The ratio of non-accrual loans 
plus loans delinquent more than 90 days to total loans was .7% and .6% at 
March 31, 1997 and March 31, 1996, respectively.  Net loan charge-offs were 
1.3% and (.6)% of the allowance for loan losses as of March 31, 1997 and 
March 31, 1996, respectively.  The reserve for possible loan losses is 
considered to be adequate to provide for future losses in the portfolio.  
The amount charged to earnings is based upon management's evaluations of the
loan portfolio, as well as current and anticipated economic conditions, net
loans charged off, past loan experiences, changes in character of the loan 
portfolio, specific problem loans and delinquencies and other factors.

Allowance for Possible Loan Losses - continued
- -----------------------------------------------

               The Corporation has allocated the allowance for possible loan
losses to specific portfolio segments based upon historical net charge-off
experience, changes in the level of non-performing assets, local economic
conditions and management experience as presented in Table Ten.  The
Corporation has historically maintained the allowance for possible loan losses
at a level greater than actual charge-offs.  Although non-performing loans
have declined during the past several years, the corporation continues to
reserve in the allowance for loan losses, provisions associated with these
loans.  In determining the allocation of the allowance for possible loan
losses, charge-offs for 1997 are anticipated to be within the historical
ranges.  Although a subjective evaluation is determined by management, the
corporation believes it has appropriately assessed the risk of loans in the
loan portfolio and has provided for an allowance which is adequate based on
that assessment.  Because the allowance is an estimate, any change in the
economic conditions of the corporation's market area could result in new
estimates which could affect the corporation's earnings.  Management monitors
loan quality through reviews of past due loans and all significant loans which
are considered to be potential problem loans on a monthly basis.  The internal
loan review function provides for an independent review of commercial, real
estate, and installment loans in order to measure the asset quality of the
portfolio. Management's review of the loan portfolio has not indicated any
material amount of loans, not disclosed in the accompanying tables and
discussions which are known to have possible credit problems that cause
management to have serious doubts as to the ability of each borrower to comply
with their present loan repayment terms. 

Deposits
- --------

          A stable core deposit base is the major source of funds for Holding
Company subsidiaries.  The deposit mix depends upon many factors including
competition from other financial institutions, depositor interest in certain
types of deposits, changes in the interest rate and the corporation's need for
certain types of deposit growth.  Total deposits were $130.7 million at  March
31, 1997 as compared to $120.3 million at March 31, 1996, an increase of 8.7%. 
Deposit growth increased primarily in time deposits.  Time deposits grew by 
$9.3 million or 21.3% at March 31, 1997 as compared to March 31, 1996.   The 
increase in time deposits was primarily the result of special promotions 
offered by the subsidiary banks throughout 1996 and during the first quarter 
of 1997.  As reflected in Table 2, average rates paid on interest bearing 
liabilities increased to 3.6% during the first quarter of 1997 as compared to
3.5% during the same period of the prior year.  

          The increase in time deposits resulted in a change in the deposit
mix during the first quarter of 1997 as compared to the same period of the 
prior year.  At March 31, 1997, non-interest bearing demand deposits comprised
10% of total deposits and interest bearing deposits which include NOW, money
market, savings and time deposits comprised 90% of total deposits.  The
changes in the deposit mix from March 31, 1996 to March 31, 1997 were a 1%
increase in noninterest bearing demand deposits and a 1% decrease in interest
bearing deposits.

Repurchase Agreements
- ----------------------          

          Repurchase agreements represent short-term borrowings, usually
overnight to 30 days.  Repurchase agreements were $5,756,675 at March 31,
1997, an increase of $4,253,538, as compared to March 31, 1996.  The increase
in repurchase agreements was primarily due to the increase in the number of
commercial customers which used repurchase agreements as an alternative money
market instruments for cash management.

Capital Resources
- -----------------

          A strong capital base is vital to continued profitability because it
promotes depositor and investor confidence and provides a solid foundation for
future growth.  Stockholders' equity increased 9.7% in 1997 entirely from
current earnings after quarterly dividends, and a decrease of 1.7% resulting
from the effect of the change in the net unrealized gain (loss) on securities
available for sale.  Stockholders equity amounted to 8.5% of total assets as
of March 31, 1997, as compared to 8.8% at March 31, 1996.

          The Holding Company is subject to regulatory risk-based capital
guidelines administered by the Federal Reserve Board.  These risk-based
capital guidelines establish minimum capital ratios of total capital, Tier 1
Capital, and leverage to assess the capital adequacy of bank holding
companies.  The Federal Reserve Board's minimum ratio of qualified total
capital to risk-weighted assets is 8 percent, of which at least half of the
total capital is required to be comprised of Tier 1 capital, or the company's
common stockholders' equity less intangibles and deferred tax assets
disallowed.  The remainder (Tier 2 Capital) may consist of certain other
prescribed instruments and a limited amount of loan loss reserves. 
Additionally, the Federal Reserve Board has established minimum leverage ratio
(Tier 1 capital to quarterly average tangible assets) guidelines for bank
holding companies.  These guidelines provide for a minimum ratio of 3 percent
for bank holding companies that meet certain specified criteria.  All other
bank holding companies are required to maintain a leverage ratio of 3 percent
plus an additional cushion of at least 100 to 200 basis points.  The
guidelines also provided that banking organizations experiencing internal
growth or making acquisitions will be expected to maintain strong capital
positions substantially above the minimum supervisory levels.  

          The following chart shows the regulatory capital levels for the
company at March 31, 1997, March 31, 1996, and December 31, 1996:


                                              March 31,      Dec. 31
                                           ---------------   ------

- -----                       -------        ------   ------   ------
  Leverage Ratio               3%            8.59     8.96     8.63

  Risk Based Capital
    Tier 1 (core)              4%           14.70    15.34    14.74
    Tier 2 (total)             8%           15.91    16.57    15.95 


          Earnings from subsidiary bank operations are expected to remain
adequate to fund payment of stockholders' dividends and internal growth.  In
management's opinion, subsidiary banks have the capability to upstream
sufficient dividends to meet the cash requirements of the Holding Company. 
The Corporation does not anticipate any material capital expenditures during
1997.

Interest Rate Risk
- ------------------

          Changes in interest rates can affect the level of income of a 
financial institution depending on the repricing characteristics of its 
assets and liabilities.  This is termed interest rate risk. If a financial
institution is asset sensitive, more of its assets will reprice in a given 
time frame than liabilities.  This is a favorable position in a rising rate
environment and would enhance income.  If an institution is liability
sensitive,  more of its liabilities will reprice in a given time frame than
assets.  This is a favorable position in a falling rate environment. 
Financial institutions allocate significant time and resources to managing
interest rate risk because of the impact that changes in interest rates can
have to earnings.

                     Results of Holding Company Operations

Interest Rate Risk - continued
- ------------------------------
 
         The initial step in the process of maintaining a corporation's
interest rate sensitivity involves the preparation of a basic "gap" analysis
of earning assets and interest bearing liabilities as reflected in the
following table.  The analysis measures the difference or the "gap" between
the amount of assets and liabilities repricing within a given time period. 
This information is used to manage a corporation's asset and liability
positions.  Management uses this information as a factor in decisions made
about maturities of investment of cash flows, classification of investment
securities purchases as available-for-sale or held-to-maturity, emphasis of
variable rate or fixed rate loans and short or longer term deposit products in
marketing campaigns, and deposit account pricing to alter asset and liability
repricing characteristics.  The overall objective is to minimize the impact to
the margin of any significant change in interest rates.

          The information presented in the following Interest Rate Risk table
contains assumptions and estimates used by management in determining repricing
characteristics and maturity distributions.  As noted in the following table,
the cumulative gap at one year is approximately $(8,826,000), which indicates
the corporation's interest bearing liabilities are more than earning assets at
March 31, 1997.  As the table presented is as of a point in time and
conditions change on a daily basis, any conclusions made may not be indicative
of future results.

Liquidity
- ---------

          Liquidity management ensures that funds are available to meet loan
commitments, deposit withdrawals, and operating expenses.  Funds are provided
by loan repayments, investment securities maturities, or deposits, and can be
raised by liquidating assets or through additional borrowings.  The
corporation had investment securities with an estimated market value of
$45,807,114 classified as available for sale at March 31, 1997.  These
securities are available for sale at any time based upon management's
assessment in order to provide necessary liquidity should the need arise.  In
addition, the Holding Company's subsidiary banks, Progressive Bank, N.A., and
Progressive Bank, N.A.- Buckhannon, are members of the Federal Home Loan Bank
of Pittsburgh (FHLB).  Membership in the FHLB provides an additional source of
short-term and long-term funding, in the form of collateralized advances.  At
March 31, 1997, Progressive Bank, N.A. and Progressive Bank, N.A.- Buckhannon,
had a maximum borrowing capacity (MBC) amounting to approximately $18,355,000
and $5,510,000, respectively, from the FHLB at prevailing interest rates,
subject to satisfying the additional capital stock provisions, as defined, in
their respective agreements with the FHLB.  At March 31, 1997, Progressive
Bank, N.A. and Progressive Bank, N.A. - Buckhannon had an available line of
approximately $1,870,000 and $560,000, respectively, without purchasing any
additional capital stock from the FHLB.  As of March 31, 1997, there were no
borrowings outstanding pursuant to these agreements.

          At March 31, 1997 and March 31, 1996, the Holding Company had
outstanding loan commitments and unused lines of credit totaling $7,441,000
and $6,588,000, respectively.  As of March 31, 1997, management placed a high
probability for required funding within one year of approximately $5,506,000. 
Approximately $1,935,000 is principally unused home equity and credit card
lines on which management places a low probability for required funding.
