THE ABANDONED TOWN
Photos by Steve Williams
Vinland, Kansas, six miles northeast of Lawrence, once was a prosperous farming community. Today there are but few people and the shell of the town that used to be. The people who once made their whole lives within the bounds of this town, left their homes, stores, and churches for the better jobs and living standards of the big city. Within a few years when the buildings are gone, there will be little trace left of the life they left behind them.
