When the Malcolmson company went broke only executive members were entitled to a dividend. The workers lost all their investment in the company as well as their jobs.

Nanny Malcolmson retired to Villa Marina in Dunmore East, where her son became a dedicated fisherman. Unfortunately, he died at Portlaw before he was twenty. In his memory, his mother built the Fisherman's Hall in Dunmore East, and inaugerated a trust fund to help the needy within a three mile radius of Dunmore.

Both buildings are still in use today in the picturesque village of Dunmore East.
