From "The Ardrossan & Saltcoats Herald" dated 2nd December 1960

Mr. Joseph Brodie, 6 Carrick Place, Ardrossan, Collector of Dues for Ardrossan Harbour Company, retired on Wednesday after 50 years service with the Company.

To mark the occasion, ten of his colleagues called at his home and on behalf of the staff, Mr. Shields, the Secretary of the Company, presented Mr. Brodie with a portable radio.

Mr. Brodie, who is a well-known figure in shipping circles, was a keen amateur footballer in his younger days, and up to the time of his illness was a keen golfer.
He is a most sincere man and has a likeable nature.
