A while later, Pip receives a visitor late at night, Abel Magwitch, the convict who he met all those years ago. After Magwitch got sent to Australia, (basically prison in Australia) he decided that he was to make a living and a fortune there through farming (we assume). Magwitch reveals that it was him infact, who had been the benefactor this whole time, and who had been supplying Pip with all this money (not Miss Havisham). Pip is extremely shocked. Magwitch asks Pip if he could live with him, and Pip decides to look after him. (Chapter 39)
