Reading Assignment 7

The convict came and found Pip in london. After a short conversation pip figures out that the convict is his beneficiary. The convict gave him all of this money just because pip brought him the file and wittles in the swamp many years ago. He wanted to make a gentleman out of pip because he could see that pip had good morale and wasnt going to get the opporntunity to excell in his current situation. Dickens could be using this as a resemblance to the industrial revolution. Not everybody had money and they had to help each other to get through it. Then, the person they helped came back and returned the favor. This could be what dickens is trying to say.
