﻿NIAGARA 
  FALLS 
  AND 
  VICINITY 
  

  

  45 
  

  

  these 
  two 
  points. 
  On 
  the 
  southern 
  shore 
  of 
  Lake 
  Erie 
  borings 
  

   have 
  revealed 
  numerous 
  deep 
  channels. 
  Thus 
  the 
  bottom 
  of 
  the 
  

   ancient 
  channel 
  of 
  the 
  Cuyahoga 
  river 
  is 
  reached, 
  according 
  to 
  

  

  to 
  meander 
  on 
  this 
  surface, 
  the 
  meandering 
  course 
  being 
  retained 
  on 
  re- 
  

   elevation. 
  The 
  depth 
  of 
  the 
  bed 
  rock 
  at 
  Port 
  Stanley 
  and 
  Vienna, 
  however 
  

   suggests 
  that 
  a 
  direct 
  channel 
  exists 
  as 
  shown 
  on 
  the 
  map. 
  The 
  principal 
  

   subsequents 
  are 
  probably 
  located 
  with 
  approximate 
  correctness, 
  but 
  the 
  

   smaller 
  branches 
  are 
  added 
  without 
  attempt 
  at 
  correctness. 
  They 
  were 
  

   probably 
  much 
  more 
  numerous 
  than 
  here 
  shown.
