Ionia Daily Sentinel, 14 Mar 1917

Mr. and Mrs. Richard Beckett, 341 State street, received word last week of the
death of their youngest son, Lieut. P.A. Beckett, who was killed in action on
Feb. 14.  Lieut. Beckett was in America for about two years, visiting his
parents here and living for a time in Arizona.  Shortly after the war broke out
he returned to England, feeling that his duty called him there.  He has been
engaged in action in France since, and it is probable that his death occurred
during the recent big drive, though the details were not communicated in the
telegram sent by the war office to his sister in England.  It was from her that
the parents learned his fate.
