         Auburn, March 2 - Funeral services for REV. HUGH 
       F. RAFFERTY of Scipio Center, whose long ministry
       as a priest in that vicinity had made him beloved
       by his parishoners, will be held Thursday morning
       in the church at Scipio Center. Solemn high ponti-
       fical mass will be sung by Bishop Thomas F. Hickey
       of Rochester at 11 o'clock. Other priests from the
       Flower City are expected to be present.
         Death brought the career of FATHER RAFFERTY to a
       close yesterday about noon. He was born in Ireland
       in 1840 and admitted to the priesthood in 1872.
       For a quarter of century and more he has ministered
       to the needs of his people in Scipio Center, North-
       ville, Glen Haven and Moravia. He is survived by
       two sisters and one brother.
