Certified Public Accountants
To The Partners
Bromwell Financial Fund, Limited Partnership
Dover, Kent County, Delaware
We have reviewed the balance sheet, including
the schedule of investments, of BROMWELL FINANCIAL FUND, LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
as of March 31, 2004 and the related statements of operations, partners'
equity and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003.
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Partnership's
management.
We conducted our review in accordance with
standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants. A review of interim financial information consists principally
of applying analytical procedures to financial data and making inquires of
persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is
substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with
auditing standards generally accepted in the United States, the objective of
which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements
taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Based on our review we are not aware of any
material modifications that should be made to the financial statements
referred to above for them to be in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States.
We have previously audited, in accordance with
auditing standards generally accepted in the United States, the balance
sheet, including the schedule of investments, of BROMWELL FINANCIAL FUND,
LIMITED PARTNERSHIP as of December 31, 2003 and the related statements of
operations, partner's equity and cash flows for the year then ended (not
presented herein); and in our report dated February 3, 2004, we expressed an
unqualified opinion on these financial statements. In our opinion, the
information set forth in the accompanying balance sheet as of December 31,
2003 is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the balance
sheet from which it has been derived.

BROMWELL FINANCIAL FUND, LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
(A Delaware Limited Partnership)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 2004 AND 2003
(A Review)
1. NATURE OF BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Bromwell Financial Fund, Limited Partnership (the Fund) was formed
January 12, 1999 under the laws of the State of Delaware. The Fund is
engaged in the speculative trading of futures contracts in commodities, which
commenced in July, 2000. Belmont Capital Management, Inc. (Belmont) and
Michael Pacult are the general partners and commodity pool operators (CPOs)
of the Fund. The commodity trading advisor (CTA) is Fall River Capital, LLC
(previous to November 3, 2003, Ansbacher Investment Management, Inc. and
Mangin Capital Management, Inc. were the CTAs), which have the authority to
trade as much of the Fund's equity as is allocated to them by the General
Partner. The selling agent is Futures Investment Company (Futures), which is
controlled by Michael Pacult and his wife.
Regulation - The Fund is a registrant with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (SEC) pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 (the
Act). The Fund is subject to the regulations of the SEC and the reporting
requirements of the Act. The Fund is also subject to the regulations of the
Commodities Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), an agency of the U.S.
government which regulates most aspects of the commodity futures industry,
the rules of the National Futures Association and the requirements of various
commodity exchanges where the Fund executes transactions. Additionally, the
Fund is subject to the requirements of futures commission merchants and
interbank market makers through which the Fund trades.
Registration Costs - Costs incurred for the initial filings with the
Securities and Exchange Commission, Commodity Futures Trading Commission,
National Futures Association (the "NFA") and the states where the offering
was made were accumulated, deferred and charged against the gross proceeds of
offering at the initial closing as part of the offering expenses. The Fund
remains open to new partners and incurs costs required to retain the ability
to issue new units. Such costs are treated in a similar manner. Costs of
recurring annual and quarterly filings with regulatory agencies are expensed
as incurred.
Revenue Recognition - Commodity futures contracts are recorded on the
trade date and are reflected in the balance sheet at the difference between
the original contract amount and the market value on the last business day of
the reporting period.
Market value of commodity futures contracts is based upon exchange or
other applicable market best available closing quotations.
Use of Accounting Estimates - The preparation of financial statements
in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities
at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these
estimates.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 2004 AND 2003
(A Review)
1. NATURE OF BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED
Income Taxes - The Fund is not required to provide a provision for
income taxes. Income tax attributes that arise from its operations are passed
directly to the individual partners. The Fund may be subject to state and
local taxes in jurisdictions in which it operates.
Statement of Cash Flows - For purposes of the Statement of Cash Flows,
the Fund considers only cash and money market funds to be cash equivalents.
As of the balance sheet dates, the Fund has no cash equivalents. Net cash
used in operating activities includes no cash payments for interest or income
taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003.
Foreign Currency Transactions - The Fund's functional currency is the
U.S. dollar; however, it transacts business in currencies other than the U.S.
dollar. Assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than U.S.
dollar are translated into U.S. dollars at the rates in effect at the date of
the statement of financial condition. Income and expense items denominated
in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are translated into U.S. dollars at
the rates in effect at each month end. Gains and losses resulting from the
translation to U.S. dollars are reported in income currently.
2. GENERAL PARTNER DUTIES
The responsibilities of the General Partner, in addition to directing
the trading and investment activity of the Fund, including suspending all
trading, includes executing and filing all necessary legal documents,
statements and certificates of the Fund, retaining independent public
accountants to audit the Fund, employing attorneys to represent the Fund,
reviewing the brokerage commission rates to determine reasonableness,
maintaining the tax status of the Fund as a limited partnership, maintaining
a current list of the names, addresses and numbers of units owned by each
Limited Partner and taking such other actions as deemed necessary or
desirable to manage the business of the Partnership.
If the daily net unit value of the partnership falls to less than 50%
of the highest value earned through trading, then the General Partner will
immediately suspend all trading, provide all limited partners with notice of
the reduction and give all limited partners the opportunity, for fifteen days
after such notice, to redeem partnership interests. No trading will commence
until after the lapse of the fifteen day period.
3. THE LIMITED PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT
The Limited Partnership Agreement provides, among other things, the
following:
Capital Account - A capital account shall be established for each
partner. The initial balance of each partner's capital account shall be the
amount of the initial contributions to the partnership.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 2004 AND 2003
(A Review)
3. THE LIMITED PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT - CONTINUED
Monthly Allocations - Any increase or decrease in the Partnership's net
asset value as of the end of a month shall be credited or charged to the
capital account of each Partner in the ratio that the balance of each account
bears to the total balance of all accounts.
Any distribution from profits or partners' capital will be made solely
at the discretion of the General Partners.
Federal Income Tax Allocations - As of the end of each fiscal year, the
Partnership's realized capital gain or loss and ordinary income or loss shall
be allocated among the Partners, after having given effect to the fees and
expenses of the Fund.
Subscriptions - Investors must submit subscription agreements and funds
at least five business days prior to month end. Subscriptions must be
accepted or rejected by the general partner within five business days. The
investor also has five business days to withdraw his subscription. Funds are
deposited into an interest bearing escrow account and will be transferred to
the Fund's account on the first business day of the month after the
subscription is accepted. Interest earned on the escrow funds will accrue to
the account of the investor.
Redemptions - A limited partner may request any or all of his
investment be redeemed at the net asset value as of the end of a month. The
written request must be received by the general partner no less than ten
business days prior to a month end. Redemptions will generally be paid within
twenty days of the effective month end. However, in various circumstances due
to liquidity, etc. the general partner may be unable to comply with the
request on a timely basis. There are no fees for redemption.
4. FEES
Effective November 1, 2003, the Fund is charged the following fees:
A management fee of 1% (annual rate) of the equity assigned to each
CTA, paid on a monthly basis and a 20% quarterly incentive fee on all new net
profits (as defined).
A continuing service fee of 4% (annual rate) of the investment in the
Fund (as defined) will be paid to the selling agent.
A $22 per round turn brokerage commission (from which brokerage
commissions will be paid to the futures commission merchant) and a 5%
quarterly incentive fee on all new net profits (as defined) will be paid to
