                                        - 3 -                                         
          (33 percent), and Helen Meldrim Janes (33 percent).  From 1945              
          through 1948, the three children operated the business as a                 
          partnership, J.S. Meldrim owning 67 percent of the partnership's            
          interests and Decedent and Helen Meldrim Janes each owning 16.5             
          percent.                                                                    
               On August 12, 1948, Helen Meldrim Janes sold 13.24 percent             
          of her 16.5-percent interest in the partnership to J.S. Meldrim             
          and sold the remaining 3.26 percent to Decedent.  J.S. Meldrim              
          and Decedent operated the resulting partnership as the Meldrim              
          & McFarland Partnership (the Partnership) from 1948 until the               
          death of J.S. Meldrim in 1969; during that period J.S. Meldrim              
          owned 80 percent of the Partnership's interests, and Decedent               
          owned the remaining 20 percent.  When J.S. Meldrim died, his                
          80-percent interest passed to his spouse and three daughters, his           
          spouse (Lillian Meldrim) receiving 50 percent of his 80-percent             
          interest in trust, and the other 50-percent interest being split            
          equally among his daughters; namely, Jo Meldrim, Personal                   
          Representative, Winifred Apfeldorf, and Carolyn Moore.  From 1969           
          through 1991, Decedent had a 20-percent interest in the                     
          Partnership, Lillian Meldrim had a 40-percent interest in trust,            
          Jo Meldrim had a 13-1/3-percent interest, Winifred Apfeldorf had            
          a 13-1/3-percent interest, and Carolyn Moore had a 13-1/3-percent           
          interest.
