LIMITED POWER OF ATTORNEY

	KNOW ALL MEN BY THESE PRESENTS THAT I, GEORGE R LUCORE, hereby make,
consitute and appoint REBECCA A BUONA, of ERIE INDEMNITY COMPANY, 100 Erie
Insurance Place, Erie, Pennsylvania 16530, my agent, with full power and
authority and in my name and stead to act for me in all matters concerning
the preparation, execution, acknowledgment, delivery and filing of all reports
required to be filed by me under Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, as fully as I could do personally, and in so acting for me in my name
to prepare, execute, acknowledge, deliver and file all papers, forms and
instruments and preform all acts and things necessary or convenient for and
incidental to the exercise of such power and authority.  I hereby ratify and
confirm whatsoever my agent shall and may do by virtue hereof.

	This Power of Attorney shall continue in force and may be accepted
and relied upon by any one to whom it is presented despite my purported
revocation of it or my death, until actual written notice of such event is
received by such person.  In the event of my incapacity, from whatever cause,
this Power of Attorney shall not thereby be revoked and shall not be affected
by my disability or incapacity, and shall be accepted and relied upon by
anyone to whom it is presented despite such incapacity, subject to it becoming
void and of no further effect only upon receipt by such person either of written
notice of the appointment of a guardian of my estate following adjudication of
incapacity, or upon receipt of written notice of my death.

	It is intended that this Power of Attorney shall be in all respects
construed according to and governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania.
