|(2) | No value has been assigned to the land held by the Trust other than parcels which have been acquired through foreclosure and a limited number of parcels which have been acquired because they were offered for sale and were contiguous to parcels already owned by the Trust. Consequently, no allowance for depletion is computed, and no charge to income is made, with respect thereto, and no cost is deducted from the proceeds of the land sales in computing gain or loss thereon.
|(3) | The Sub-shares and the Certificates of Proprietary Interest are freely interchangeable in the ratio of one Certificate of Proprietary Interest for 600 Sub-shares or 600 Sub-shares for one Certificate of Proprietary Interest.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                           
|(4) | The Trusts effective Federal income tax rate is less than the 34% statutory rate because taxable income is reduced by statutory percentage depletion allowed on mineral royalty income.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   
|(5) | The results of operations for the three month and six month periods ended June 30, 2006 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    
|(6) | The Trust invests cash in excess of daily requirements primarily in overnight investments in loan participation instruments and U. S. Treasury bills with maturities of ninety days or less.

|(7) | SFAS No. 131, Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related
Information  establishes standards for the way public business enterprises are to
report information about operating segments. SFAS No. 131 utilizes the management
approach as a basis for identifying reportable segments. The management approach is based
on the way that management organizes the segments within the enterprise for making
operating decisions and assessing performance. The Trusts management views its
operations as one segment and believes the only significant activity is managing the land
which was conveyed to the Trust in 1888. The Trusts management makes decisions
about resource allocation and performance assessment based on the same financial
information presented in these financial statements. Managing the land includes sales and
leases of such land, and the retention of oil and gas royalties.

|Item 2. | Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
|------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The following discussion and analysis should be read together with (i) the factors discussed in Item 1A Risk Factors of Part I of our Annual Report to the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005, (ii) the factors discussed in Part II, Item 1A Risk Factors, if any, of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and (iii) the Financial Statements, including the Notes thereto, and the other financial information appearing elsewhere in this Report. Period-to-period comparisons of financial data are not necessarily indicative, and therefore should not be relied upon as indicators, of the Trusts future performance. Words or phrases such as does not believe and believes, or similar expressions, when used in this Form 10-Q or other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, are intended to
identify forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

Results of Operations for the Quarter Ended June 30, 2006 Compared to the Quarter Ended June 30, 2005

Earnings per sub-share certificate were $1.38 for the second quarter of 2006 compared to $1.09 for the second quarter of 2005. Total revenues were $5,012,478 for the second quarter of 2006 compared to $4,065,220 for the second quarter of 2005, an increase of 23.3%. This increase in revenue and earnings was due primarily to an increase in sundry income and, to a lesser extent, an increase in oil royalty revenue which more than offset decreases in land sales and gas royalty revenue during the second quarter of 2006 compared to the second quarter of 2005. The increase in sundry income resulted primarily from a one-time payment received by the Trust from an oil company in settlement of a claim by the Trust for damages to property leased to the oil company by the Trust.

In the second quarter of 2006, land sales totaled $716,117, representing the sale of 3,379 acres at an average price of $212 per acre. In the comparable period of 2005, land sales totaled $1,294,865, representing the sale of 9,975 acres at an average price of $130 per acre.

Rentals, royalties and sundry income were $3,831,158 for the second quarter of 2006 compared to $2,324,159 for the second quarter of 2005, an increase of 64.8%. This increase resulted primarily from an increase in sundry income and, to a lesser extent, an increase in oil and gas royalty revenue. The increase in oil and gas royalty revenue was attributable to the higher market prices for oil and gas which prevailed during the second quarter of 2006 compared to the second quarter of
2005, which more than offset decreases in the volumes of oil and gas production in the 2006 period.

Oil and gas royalty revenue was $2,042,400 for the second quarter of 2006 compared to $1,911,505 for the second quarter of 2005, an increase of 6.8%. Oil royalty revenue was $1,487,036 for the second quarter of 2006, an increase of 14.7% from the second quarter of 2005. Crude oil production subject to the Trusts royalty interest decreased 11.8% for the second quarter of 2006, but this decrease in the volume of production was more than offset by a 29.9% increase in the average price per royalty barrel of crude oil in the 2006 second quarter compared to the 2005 second quarter. Gas royalty revenue was $555,364 for the second quarter of 2006, a decrease of 9.6% from the second quarter of 2005, resulting from a decrease of 19.1% in the volume of gas produced, which was only partially offset by a price increase of 11.7%.

Easement and sundry income was $1,611,909 for the second quarter of 2006, an increase of 526.9% from the second quarter of 2005. The increase in sundry income resulted primarily from a one-time payment in the amount of $1,308,000 received by the Trust from an oil company in settlement of a claim by the Trust for damages to property leased to the oil company by the Trust. This category of income is unpredictable and may vary significantly from quarter to quarter.

Interest revenue was $465,203 for the second quarter of 2006 compared to $446,196 for the second quarter of 2005, an increase of 4.3%. Interest on notes receivable for the second quarter of 2006 was $333,416, a decrease of 17.4% compared to the second quarter of 2005. As of June 30, 2006, notes receivable for land sales were $18,300,779 compared to $19,083,848 at June 30, 2005, a decrease of 0.5%. Sundry interest was $131,787 for the second quarter of 2006, an increase of 209.1% from the second quarter of 2005. Sundry interest fluctuates based on cash on hand for investment and interest rates on short-term investments.

Taxes, other than Federal income taxes decreased 0.8% for the second quarter of 2006 compared to the second quarter of 2005.

General and administrative expenses for the second quarter of 2006 were down 1.5% compared to the second quarter of 2005.

Results of Operations for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2006 Compared to the Six Months Ended June30, 2005

Earnings per sub-share certificate were $2.28 for the first six months of 2006 compared to $1.71 for the first six months of 2005. Total revenues were $8,511,246 for the first six months of 2006 compared to $6,644,481 for the first six months of 2005, an increase of 28.1%. This increase in revenue and earnings was due primarily to an increase in sundry income and, to a lesser extent, an increase in oil and gas royalty revenue, which more than offset a decrease in land sales during the first six months of 2006 compared to the first six months of 2005. The increase in sundry income resulted primarily from a one-time payment received by the Trust from an oil company in settlement of a claim by the Trust for damages to property leased to the oil company by the Trust.

In the first six months of 2006, land sales totaled $716,117, representing the sale of 3,379 acres at an average price of approximately $212 per acre. In the comparable period of 2005, land sales totaled $1,294,865, representing the sale of 9,975 acres at an average price of approximately $130 per acre.

Rentals, royalties, and sundry income were $6,883,085 for the first six months of 2006 compared to $4,459,364 for the first six months of 2005, an increase of 54.4%. This increase resulted primarily from an increase in sundry income and, to a lesser extent, an increase in oil and gas royalty revenue. The increase in oil and gas royalty revenue was primarily attributable to the higher market prices for oil and gas
which prevailed during the first six months of 2006 compared to the first six months of 2005 and, to a lesser extent, a modest increase in gas production during the 2006 period, which more than offset a decrease in the volume of oil production in the 2006 period.

Oil and gas royalty revenue was $4,554,660 for the first six months of 2006, compared to $3,743,039 for the first six months of 2005, an increase of 21.7%. Oil royalty revenue was $2,930,419 for the first six months of 2006, an increase of 16.4% from the first six months of 2005. Crude oil production subject to the Trusts royalty interest decreased 12.4% for the first six months of 2006, but this decrease in the volume of production was more than offset by a 32.8% increase in the average price per royalty barrel of crude oil in the first six months of 2006 compared to the first six months of 2005. Gas royalty revenue was $1,624,241 for the first six months of 2006, an increase of 32.6% from the first six months of 2005, resulting from a price increase of 28.6% and an increase of 3.1% in the volume of gas produced.

Easement and sundry income was $2,061,156 for the first six months of 2006, an increase of  366.3% from the first six months of 2005. The increase in sundry income resulted primarily from a one-time payment in the amount of $1,308,000 received by the Trust from an oil company in settlement of a claim by the Trust for damages to property leased to the oil company by the Trust. This category of income is unpredictable and may vary significantly from period to period.

Interest revenue was $912,044 for the first six months of 2006 compared to $890,252 for the first six months of 2005, an increase of 2.4%. Interest on notes receivable for the first six months of 2006 was $675,253, a decrease of 17.0% from the comparable period of 2005. As of June 30, 2006, notes receivable from land sales were $18,300,779 compared to $19,083,848 at June 30, 2005, a decrease of 0.5%. Sundry interest was $236,791 for the first six months of 2006, an increase of 208.8% from the 2005 period. Sundry interest fluctuates based on cash on hand for investment and interest rates on short-term investments.

Taxes, other than Federal income taxes increased 11.9% for the first six months of 2006 compared to the first six months of 2005. This increase is attributable to an increase in oil and gas production taxes. The increase in oil and gas production taxes, in turn, resulted primarily from the increased oil and gas royalty income occasioned by the higher oil and gas prices which prevailed during the first six months of 2006 compared to the first six months of 2005.

General and administrative expenses for the first six months of 2006 were down 0.9% compared to the first six months of 2005.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Trusts principal sources of liquidity are revenues from oil and gas royalties, lease rentals and receipts of interest and principal payments on the notes receivable arising from land sales. In the past, those sources have generated more than adequate amounts of cash to meet the Trusts needs and, in the opinion of management, should continue to do so in the foreseeable future.

|Item 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
|------- | ----------------------------------------------------------

There have been no material changes in the information related to market risk of the Trust since December 31, 2005.
