Thanks @lwburk , I was actually quite curious as to why the prop wasn't destroyed at that end of the constructor, Is this actually considered 'good practice' or should I try an avoid it?

@SpencerKillen - closures are a very useful construct in javascript and there is no reason to avoid them if needed. If you want a truly private variable, then a closure is the only way to implement it.
