Dear Mr. DiStefano:

On April 27, 2012, the Closed-End Funds filed a PRE 14A as Co-Registrants (Accession No. 0000894189-12-002328).  When transmitting the filing, an incorrect transmittal letter was inadvertently submitted which related to the recent 497(e) filing of an affiliated entity, the Rochdale Investment Trust (File. Nos. 333-47415 and 811-08685).  Submitted herewith is the correct transmittal letter for the PRE 14A.

The same PRE 14A was also filed for the Rochdale Investment Trust (Accession No. 0000894189-12-002329).  This filing was transmitted with the correct transmittal letter.

If you have any questions or require further information, do not hesitate to contact the undersigned at (414) 765-6121.

Sincerely,


/s/ Angela L. Pingel

Ladies and Gentlemen:

Enclosed herewith for filing on behalf of the above-referenced registered investment companies (the “Funds”) is a preliminary proxy statement for use in connection with a joint special meeting of the shareholders of each of the Funds.

At the special meeting, which the Funds plan to hold on June 15, 2012, the shareholders of each Fund will be asked to approve new investment advisory agreements with Rochdale Investment Management, LLC.  Additionally, shareholders of certain of the Funds will be asked to approve new subadvisory agreements related to those Funds.

Please note that when these Funds have filed combined proxy statements in the past, they have on occasion been reviewed by multiple examiners, resulting in multiple sets of comments.  The Funds respectfully request that the Commission Staff’s review be consolidated so that the Funds will only need to respond to one set of comments.

Please do not hesitate to contact the undersigned at 215-772-7598 with any questions or comments that you may have with respect to this preliminary proxy statement.

Very truly yours,


Laura Anne Corsell, Esq.
