Ladies and Gentlemen:

     In accordance with Rule 461 under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended, the undersigned, on behalf of AEI Income & Growth Fund
26 LLC hereby requests acceleration of effectiveness of the above-
referenced Registration Statement to 9:00 a.m., Eastern Standard
Time, on October 19, 2005, or as soon thereafter as practicable.

     In connection with the foregoing, please be advised that no
form of preliminary prospectus was printed or distributed, except
to state securities administrators, and to counsel and the
independent public accountant of the Managing Member.

     Participating dealers will confirm to us that they will make
delivery of prospectuses as required in compliance with the
provisions of Rule 15c2-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934 and with the Securities Act of 1933.

     We confirm that we are aware of our responsibilities under
the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
as they relate to the proposed public offering of the securities
specified in the above-referenced Registration Statement,
including our responsibility for the accuracy and adequacy of the
disclosures made in the Registration Statement.  We also confirm
in accordance with your request that:

     should the Commission or the staff, acting pursuant to
     delegated authority, declare the Registration Statement effective,
     it shall not preclude the Commission from taking action with
     respect to the Registration Statement;

     the action of the Commission or the staff, acting pursuant to
     delegated authority, in declaring the Registration Statement
     effective, shall not relieve the undersigned from its full
     responsibility for the adequacy and accuracy of the disclosure in
     the Registration Statement;

     the undersigned may not assert action of the Commission or
     the staff, acting pursuant to delegated authority, in declaring
     the Registration Statement effective, as a defense in any
     proceeding initiated by the Commission or any person under federal
     securities laws of the United States.


                              Very truly yours,

                              AEI INCOME & GROWTH FUND 26 LLC
