RE: Registered Management Investment Company Bond </p>

<p>Dear Sir or Madam:</p>

<p>We are filing electronically herewith, pursuant to Rule 17g-1 promulgated under
the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the &#8220;1940 Act&#8221;),
the following items with respect to the joint insured Investment Company Bond
covering Ellsworth Fund Ltd. (&#8220;Ellsworth&#8221;),&nbsp; Bancroft Fund
Ltd. (&#8220;Bancroft&#8221; and together with Ellsworth, the &#8220;Funds&#8221;)
and Dinsmore Capital Management Co. (the &#8220;Adviser&#8221;):</p>

<p style='margin-left:.5in'>1. A copy of Investment Company Bond No. 82126582,
showing coverage of $975,000, effective May 1, 2010, which was received in
executed form by the Company on or about June 3, 2010;</p>

<p style='margin-left:.5in'>2. A certified copy of resolutions adopted by a
majority of the members of the Board of Trustees of the Funds who are not
interested persons at a meeting of the Board held on April 12, 2010 approving
the amount, type, form, and coverage of the bond and the portion of the
premiums to be paid by each insured party; and</p>

<p style='margin-left:.5in'>3. A copy of the 2010 agreement entered into by the
Funds and the Adviser pursuant to Rule 17g-1(f) under the 1940 Act.</p>

<p>Were they not to hold a joint insured bond, Ellsworth would be required to
maintain a fidelity bond in the amount of $525,000 and Bancroft would be

<p>The premium for this bond was paid on or about May 1, 2010.</p>
