The Ionia Weekly Standard, Friday, November 4, 1910

Frank Carpenter, son of “Bob” Carpenter, committed suicide at Grand Rapids, at 
noon Thursday, by shooting himself through the head.

He has been living at Grand Rapids about two years, and has latterly been 
employed by the Voight Milling Co.  The cause of act is not known, but it is 
presumed that it may be on account of financial difficulties.  He leaves a 
wife and three children.  His father and E. E. Slye went to Grand Rapids on 
afternoon train.
