Ladies and Gentlemen:                                                           

We were previously principal accountants for The Travelers Insurance Company and
Subsidiaries (the 'Company') and, under the date of March 28, 2005, we reported 
on the consolidated financial statements of the Company as of and for the years 
ended December 31, 2004 and 2003. On September 29, 2005, our appointment as     
principal accountants was terminated. We have read the Company's statements     
included under Item 4.01(a) of its Form 8-K dated October 5, 2005, and we agree 
with such statements, except for that we are not in a position to agree or      
disagree with the Company's statement that the dismissal was approved by the    
Board of Directors.                                                             

Very truly yours,                                                               

/s/ KPMG LLP
