          percent interest in a partnership known as Chancelor Concourse               
          Joint Venture (CCJV).  CCJV had been formed to purchase, develop,            
          and sell a particular parcel of real property.  Around June or               
          July 1990, the Orange County School Board and Orange County,                 
          Florida, condemned the real property owned by CCJV (CCJV real                
          property), and OIP received certain cash proceeds (condemnation              
          proceeds) as a result of that condemnation.                                  
               The terms of a document entitled "Warranty Deed", which                 
          bears the date of February 28, 1992, was signed by Mr. Canty as              
          president of OIP, and was recorded on September 10, 1993 (re-

          in document stamps was paid to the State of Florida with respect             
          to the transfer recited in that document.  Based on the amount of            
          such document stamps, the value of the Vero Beach property for               
          Florida document stamp purposes was $360,000.

          property on that date as part of a like-kind exchange under sec.             
          1031.
