In Chapter 36, Pip turns twenty-one, receives five hundred pounds, and gains control of his spending, but Jaggers refuses to identify his benefactor or predict their appearance. Pip also seeks advice about helping a friend, and Wemmick distinguishes his harsh office judgment from the personal advice available at Walworth.
