Bitter Enemies
Magwitch VS Compeyson
In the play it doesn't say how Magwitch and Compeyson became enemies so i decided to do a little bit of research.
Abel Magwitch grew up as a young criminal stealing food so that he could eat (ch.42 Provis's Record) |
Magwitch meets Compeyson at the Epsom Races, and Compeyson offers Magwitch a job helping him to swindle others out of their money. (ch. 42 Provis's Record) |
Arthur and Compeyson steal Miss Havisham's money. Arthur has nightmares about Miss Havisham, and he dies from terror. (ch. 42 Provis's Record) |
Compeyson and Magwitch are arrested and tried for felony. They got seperate defenses, and Compeyson blamed most of the crimes on Magwitch. Magwitch ends up being declared guilty, while Compeyson gets mercy. (ch. 42 Provis's Record) |
Magwitch and Compeyson go to the same prison ship, off the shore of the small town where Pip lives. (Pre-book/Assumption) |
Both of them escape, and Magwitch comes across Pip, who brings him food. (ch. 1-3 Pip Meets a Convict) |
Pip finds Compeyson out in the marshes and tells Magwitch. Magwitch pursues him. (ch. 3 The "Dog" and the young convict) http://greatexpecations.wiki.manheimcentral.org/Magwitch+VS.+Compeyson ![]() |
