                                  PART I

Item 1.  Business.

Omitted pursuant to the no action letter to the registrant from
the Office of Chief Counsel of the Division of Corporation
Finance, Securities and Exchange Commission dated June 17, 1988
(the "No Action Letter") with respect to series of mortgage
pass-through certificates (collectively, the "Mortgage Pass-
Through Certificates"), each series being issued pursuant to a
Pooling and Servicing Agreement (collectively, the "Pooling and
Servicing Agreements") between the registrant, a servicer or master
servicer, a trustee and in some instances a certificate administrator.


Item 2.  Properties.

In lieu of information required by Item 102 of Regulation S-K,
the annual statements as to the compliance by the master servicer 
or servicer with respect to the servicing activities under the Pooling 
and Servicing Agreements or related servicing agreements during 
1996 (collectively, the "Annual Statements of Compliance") are 
attached or will be provided hereto as Exhibit 99.2 and are 
incorporated by reference herein.


Item 3.  Legal Proceedings.

In January 1997, the registrant and others were served with
a complaint in a purported class action filed on November 18,
1996 in the Superior Court of New Jersey, Essex County Law
Division, The Capitol Life Insurance Co. v. The Prudential
Insurance Company of America et al., Esx-L-13045-96.  
On March 26, 1997, the registrant and others filed a motion 
to dismiss the complaint for failure to state a claim on which 
relief can be granted.  On June 2, 1997, an amended complaint 
was filed, and American Investors Life Insurance Company 
joined The Capitol Life Insurance Co. as a named plaintiff in the 
action.  As amended, the complaint asserts claims against the 
registrant, and certain of their present and former affiliates 
and certain former employees as well as Merrill Lynch & Co., 
Kidder Peabody & Co., Incorporated, Lehman Brothers Inc. and 
Salomon Brothers Inc for common law fraud, negligent
misrepresentation, violations of the New Jersey RICO statute, 
violations of the New Jersey securities statute and negligence
arising out of the plaintiffs' purchase of Prudential Home Thirty-
Year Mortgage Trust 1992-A, Subordinated Mortgage Securities,
Series 1992-A (the "Securities") and seeks compensatory and
punitive damages and injunctive relief. The complaint alleges
that the defendants misrepresented and concealed
material facts relating to the quality and likely performance
of the Securities, including among other things the selection of
assets underlying the Securities, financial models and projections
used, default and loss experience, sufficiency of credit support, 
loan-to-value ratios, quality of underwriting standards, ability to 
affect the existence, timing, amount and reporting of defaults and 
losses, and payment terms. The registrant and affiliated
defendants are vigorously defending the lawsuit. The case is
at a preliminary stage, and the registrant is not now in a position
to predict the outcome or effect of the litigation.
 
The registrant knows of no other material pending legal 
proceedings involving the trust estates created under the Pooling
and Servicing Agreements (the "Trusts"), the trustee, any master 
servicer, certificate administrator, the servicers or the registrant with 
respect to the Trusts other than routine litigation incidental to the 
duties of the respective parties under the Pooling and Servicing 
Agreements or related servicing agreements.

None.
