          Item 1.  Financial Statements

          The financial statements included herein have been prepared by
          JHM Acceptance Corporation III ("JMAC III"), without audit, pursuant
          to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
          Commission ("SEC").  Certain information and footnote disclosures
          normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance
          with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed
          or omitted pursuant to such SEC rules and regulations, although
          JMAC III believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the
          information presented not misleading. In the opinion of Management,
          all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments)
          necessary to fairly present the financial position, results of
          operations and cash flows at December 31, 1995, and for all the
          periods presented have been made.

          It is suggested that these financial statements be read in
          conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto

                                NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                      December 31, 1995
                                          (unaudited) 


Note 1.    General

The accompanying financial statements reflect the accounts of JHM Acceptance
 Corporation III ("JMAC III").  The unaudited statements as of December 31, 
 1995 and 1994, respectively, reflect, in the opinion of management, all
 adjustments (normal recurring in nature) necessary to present fairly the
 financial position as of December 31, 1995 and the results of operations and
 cash flows for the nine months ended December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively.
 These financial statements have been prepared by JMAC III, without audit,
 pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
 Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included
 in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
 accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules
 and regulations, although JMAC III believes that the disclosures are adequate
 to make the information presented not misleading.  It is suggested that
 these financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial
 statements and notes thereto included in JMAC III's report on Form 10-K for
 the fiscal year ended March 31, 1995.

Note 2.   Organization

JHM Acceptance Corporation III was organized as a Maryland corporation on
 December 16, 1985.  Prior to March 7, 1988, JMAC III was known as Oxford
 Acceptance Corporation III and from March 7, 1988 to May 24, 1988,
 JMAC III was known as Montgomery Acceptance Corporation III.

JMAC III was organized for the purpose of issuing and selling collateralized
 mortgage obligations ("Bonds"), other notes and obligations, and acquiring,
 owning, holding, and pledging Mortgage-Backed Certificates guaranteed by
 the Government National Mortgage Association ("GNMA Certificates"),
 Guaranteed Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates issued by the Federal National
 Mortgage Association ("FNMA Certificates"), Mortgage Participation
 Certificates issued by the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation
 ("FHLMC Certificates") (collectively, the "Mortgage Certificates") and
 obligations of others which are secured by the types of instruments
 referred to above. 

 Note 3.  Basis of Presentation

As of March 31, 1988, JMAC III had sold the residual cash flows for all
 outstanding series of Bonds.  As a result, JMAC III currently has no sources
 of cash flow from operations.  All cash flows from the Mortgage
 Certificates are restricted and must be paid first to the bondholders and
 then any excess (net of expenses) is distributed to the residual interest
 holders.  JMAC III  has no responsibility for expenses related to its 
 remaining three series.  An affiliate performs the administration for
 JMAC III's issuances, and has agreed to defer fees for such services to the
 extent that the fees exceed currently available excess cash flows.

Note 4.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies


Income Taxes

In accordance with an informal tax sharing plan, JMAC III files a consolidated
 tax return with its parent, JDS Capital Corporation, (formerly JHM Capital
 Corporation).   In accordance with the plan, JMAC III computes its
 taxes due to JDS Capital Corporation on a separate company basis with no
 benefit received for net operating losses.  No significant timing differences
 exist as of December 31, 1995.  No provision for taxes has been recorded for
 the nine months ended December 31, 1995 and December 31, 1994 due to net
 operating losses.

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
 Results of Operations

Capital Resources and Liquidity

JMAC III's sources of funds with respect to its Bonds are receipts of principal
 and interest on the Mortgage Certificates, pledged as collateral for each
 series of Bonds, and the reinvestment income thereon.  Management believes
 that these sources of funds will be sufficient to pay the Bonds in
 accordance with their terms.  As of March 31, 1988, JMAC III had sold the
 residual cash flows for all of its outstanding series.  As a result, JMAC III
 currently has (a) no sources of cash flows as all cash flows from the
 Mortgage Certificates are restricated and must be paid first to the
 bondholders and then any excess (net of expenses) is distributed to the
 residual interest holders; and (b) no responsibilty for expenses related 
 to its three remaining series.  An affiliate performs the  administration 
 for JMAC III's issuances, and has agreed to defer fees for such services to
 the extent that the fees exceed currently available excess cash flows.

At December 31, 1995, JMAC III had a remaining balance of $199,000,000
 available for issuance of additional bonds from a previous shelf
 registration. 

Results of Operations

JMAC III issued its Series A and Series C Bonds in 1986 and
 Series F in May, 1987, respectively.

Currently JMAC III has no plans for issuance of collateralized mortgage
 obligations.  The dominance of FNMA and FHLMC as issuers of REMIC securities
 has reduced the opportunities for JMAC III to issue such securities.
