   ORDER MAKING FINDINGS AND IMPOSING SANCTION BY DEFAULT AGAINST THOMAS
   J. CONNOLLY

                               I. BACKGROUND

   The Securities and Exchange Commission (Commission) issued its Order
   Instituting Proceedings (OIP) in this matter on August 5, 2003,
   pursuant to Section 15(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
   (Exchange Act). The OIP alleges that Thomas J. Connolly was associated
   with a broker-dealer from 1993 through 1997 and has pleaded guilty to
   conspiracy to commit wire fraud, a charge that resulted from his
   wrongdoing at the broker-dealer. He was served with the OIP on August
   22, 2003. He failed to file an Answer, due on September 11, twenty
   days after he was served. § 201.220(b); OIP at 3. Additionally, he
   failed to appear at a September 11 prehearing conference of which he
   had been notified.

   Connolly is in default. 17 C.F.R. §§ 201.155(a)(1), .155(a)(2),
   .221(f). Accordingly, the undersigned finds that the allegations in
   the OIP are true as to him. The findings of fact and conclusions of
   law made in this Order as to Connolly are not binding on any other
   person in this proceeding.

                            II. FINDINGS OF FACT

   Connolly was associated with National Financial Services, LLC
   (Fidelity), a registered broker-dealer and subsidiary of Fidelity
   Investments from January 1993 until he was terminated in 1997.
