→October
Toward the end of October, Jim awakened her in the middle of the night to tell her, breathlessly, that Henry Rearden had quit his mills and vanished—and that hundreds of his employees had vanished after him when his disappearance became known. Jim begged Dagny to somehow bring Henry back, but Dagny said that she could not bring him back, and wouldn't if she could.
