  Conesus 
  creek. 
  Silver 
  lake 
  is 
  another 
  small 
  body 
  of 
  water 
  in 
  the 
  

   Genesee 
  basin 
  and 
  tributary 
  to 
  the 
  river 
  by 
  the 
  Silver 
  lake 
  outlet. 
  

   Ganaseraga 
  creek 
  joins 
  Genesee 
  river 
  near 
  Mount 
  Morris. 
  From 
  

   Dansville 
  to 
  its 
  mouth, 
  a 
  distance 
  of 
  16 
  miles, 
  this 
  creek 
  flows 
  

   through 
  a 
  broad 
  alluvial 
  valley 
  with 
  very 
  little 
  fall. 
  Above 
  Dans- 
  

   ville 
  the 
  stream 
  is 
  more 
  rapid, 
  but 
  the 
  comparatively 
  small, 
  de- 
  

   forested 
  catchment 
  area 
  limits 
  its 
  value 
  for 
  water 
  power. 
  Honeoye 
  

   creek, 
  which 
  is 
  the 
  outlet 
  of 
  Honeoye, 
  Canadice 
  and 
  Hemlock 
  

   lakes, 
  furnishes 
  some 
  water 
  power. 
  There 
  are 
  also 
  several 
  mills 
  

   on 
  the 
  outlet 
  of 
  Conesus 
  lake. 
  

  

  Formerly 
  there 
  were 
  a 
  number 
  of 
  mills 
  on 
  the 
  Silver 
  lake 
  out- 
  

   let, 
  but 
  changed 
  business 
  conditions 
  have 
  led 
  to 
  their 
  decay. 
  The 
  

   other 
  tributaries 
  of 
  the 
  Genesee 
  have 
  little 
  significance 
  as 
  mill 
  

   streams. 
  It 
  appears, 
  then, 
  that 
  the 
  two 
  places 
  of 
  importance 
  on 
  

   Genesee 
  river, 
  from 
  the 
  water-power 
  point 
  of 
  view, 
  are 
  Portage 
  

   and 
  Rochester.
