     This statement constitutes Amendment No. 10 to the Schedule 13D
originally, dated June 7, 1991 (the "Schedule 13D"), and
subsequently amended, of John W. Henry, with respect to the common
stock, par value $.01 per share (the "Common Stock"), of Jack Henry
& Associates, Inc. (the "Company") which maintains its principal
executive offices at 663 Highway 60, P.O. Box 807, Monett, Missouri
65708.  John W. Henry has previously filed his Schedule 13D jointly
with JKHY Partnership, Michael E. Henry and Vicki Jo Henry.
However, on December 28, 1998 John W. Henry transferred his entire
partnership interest in JHKY Partners to Michael E. Henry and Vicki
Jo Henry in equal amounts.  At that time, his conveyed partnership
interest represented a beneficial interest in 55,414 shares of
Common Stock.  As a result, John W. Henry has not retained any
voting or beneficial interest in JKHY Partners and will no longer be
filing a joint Schedule 13D with JKHY Partnership, Michael E. Henry
and Vicki Jo Henry.

     All Items of the Schedule 13D are amended in their entirety as
follows:
