One of her brothers, Mr.G.J.Samuel, who had worked faithfully in the Establishment, and his wife were with them in this critical period, who also tried in vain to restore the business to its previous position. Later, they too had to leave, to earn the livelihood for their family. Hence, she tried to run the business with new partners, who were also not trustworthy. Her eldest son Samuel Victor and the next son King Calvin discontinued their education and tried to revive the business, which also resulted in failure.
