Confusion...

So I understood the vast majority of the book. Even through  all of the ridiculously difficult language, I was able to grasp most of what was going on. However, near the end, there was the whole thing with someone watching them, and they had the boat to escape, but they needed a sign before escaping... That I didn't understand. And was Provis the same person as Magwitch? Help?

  1. They were escaping because Magwitch is still wanted by the Crown, but they were waiting for a sign that the government was closing in. Provis was another name for Magwitch. Magwitch also went under the name of Mr. Campbell, although that wasn't used nearly as much. He was usually just Provis.
