He was succeeded by his daughters Mary and Ann, who continued to operate the business until some time after 1837 when it was then taken over by Joseph Long.

A printed thirteen-line ìCautionî on verso of the title-page warns against instruments on sale in London and Dublin stamped ìDicasî which are not of of her [Mary Arstall] manufacture.
