               On May 6, 1986, petitioner deposited $300 into his Freedom             
          account.  On August 1, 1986, a deposit of $9,038.47 was made to             
          Mr. Miles’s law firm’s trust account.  On October 10, 1986, $300            
          was deposited into Mr. Miles’s law firm’s trust account for

                                       OPINION                                        
               Petitioner does not discuss on brief the deposit of $300 on

               Petitioner does not discuss on brief the deposit of $300 on            
          October 10, 1986.  We find that he received that item as income.
