Halley canceled all his concert engagements and moved to a never-disclosed location, intending to live on his box-office purse, and after that to "take the lowest job [he] could find," at John Galt's suggestion. Soon afterwards, Halley heard the news of the sudden and surprisingly orderly liquidation of [[Midas Mulligan]]'s [[bank]] in [[Chicago]], [[Illinois]]. About a month or so later, John Galt reached Halley and passed along an interesting invitation. According to Galt, Mulligan had bought a secluded [[Galt's Gulch|valley]] in the [[Rocky Mountains]], and stocked it copiously with supplies. Galt had shared Halley's story with Mulligan, and Mulligan had said that he would be very pleased to have Richard Halley as a tenant in his valley.

Halley canceled all his concert engagements and moved to a never-disclosed location, intending to live on his box-office purse, and after that to "take the lowest job [he] could find," at John Galt's suggestion. He sold outright the rights to all his work, for whatever he could get. Now he was back in the garret apartments and eating at the cheap delis—only now he accepted his situation with a pride he had never felt before.

Halley enthusiastically accepted Mulligan's offer, came to the place now known as [[Galt's Gulch]], and built his own modest house there. Halley grew fruit trees on the large leasehold that Midas offered him, and in his spare time composed a ''fifth'' concerto. The novel says of the ''motifs'' of this concerto that "they spoke of rising and they were the rising itself." He played this concerto regularly, primarily in "command performances" before Midas, but also in annual concerts held every June during the strike period, as other strikers would gather in the valley to rest and compare notes. These engagements, such as they were, brought him a fairly comfortable living, but became far more lucrative in the year that [[Ellis Wyatt]] joined the strike and led a large number of businessmen who came to the valley to reorganize their businesses within its confines.
