For the fourth quarter of 2002, earnings decreased by $2,969,000 to $14,748,000 as compared to earnings for the fourth quarter of 2001, primarily due to decreased gain on sale of securities, a write-down of a limited partnership investment and decreased interest and other income partially offset by increased earnings from land, house and condominium operations and increased gain on sale of real estate.
