This chapter is talking about who Mr.Utterson is. He is a well respected lawyer but seems to never be happy. He gave very short and cold responses and showed no feeling or expression. He did have a good side to him that was lovable. He enjoys drinking alone and enjoys theater. He never judged others and was always ready to help. He is a good natured character. He takes a walk around London with his friend Mr.Enfield and they come across this door that Utterson points out at a building that’s very uninviting while walking on an “inviting” street. The building had no windows and it was neglected because it doesn’t seem fitting in the area it was located in. Enfield starts telling a story that had something to do with this building. He was walking one night in this neighborhood when he saw a small misshapen man crash into a young girl and trampled her. The girl was left there screaming. The girl's family and a doctor confronted the man and blackmailed him into paying 100 pounds to the girl because of what he had done. He took them to the doorway and returned with 10 pounds of gold and a check for the other 90 he owed. The family didn’t think the check was real and that it was a forgery so the man stayed with them until the bank opened up the next morning. The check carried the name of a reputable man and Utterson had some suspicions and questioned Enfield but he says he didn't investigate. But mentions that there is something strange about the door because he has studied it. Utterson then finds out that it was Hyde who trampled the girl from Enfield. Enfield already knows who Hyde is which is why he didn’t question the check. Hyde has no compassion or guilt for what he did. Hyde cares about his reputation and the citizens of this neighborhood seem to be more engaged and interested in what is going on

Quote:
"It showed no windows, nothing but a door on the lower floor and the blind face of a dirty wall on the upper one; its whole appearance bore the marks of long neglect. The door, which was fitted with neither bell nor knocker, had not seen fresh paint for many years"(Stevenson 2).

Utterson goes home to review a will for his friend Dr Jekyll which states that if Jekyll dies or disappears for more than 3 months, all of his possessions will be given to Mr.Hyde. Utterson visits Dr.Lanyon who is his friend and a science partner of Jekyll. He visits Lanyon because he is troubled by the will and wants to know who Hyde is since he has never heard of him . He thinks that Hyde has some type of power of Jekyll because of Hyde’s behavior. He proceeds to tell Utterson he has never heard of Mr.Hyde because he and Jekyll had a falling out because of a professional dispute. He claims that Jekyll’s last experiment was “unscientific balderdash” because it was so ridiculous and incorrect science. He doesn’t agree with his experiment. During the night Utterson is haunted with nightmares of Hyde trampling the girl and wishes he could see Hyde’s face. He commits himself to finding Mr.Hyde to see his face. He goes down to the “building” where Enfield saw Hyde enter to spend some time down there in hopes of finding Hyde. He finally sees Hyde and approaches him, he then introduces himself as a friend of Jeklyll’s. Hyde kept his head down but returned his greetings. Hyde wonders how Utterson knows his name so he says that Jekyll mentioned him. Hyde becomes angry and claims he knows Jekyll better than Utterson. He wonders why Hyde is so ugly after he goes through the door. We find out that the building that Hyde is in is a labractory attached to Jekyll’s townhouse. He then goes to visit Jekyll and his servant Mr.Poole tells him that he isn’t home right now. Poole tells him that Hyde has a key to Jekyll’s home. He begins to worry about Jekyll’s condition and worries if he is hiding a disgrace. Utterson thinks that Hyde is blackmailing Jekyll for some wrongdoings that Jekyll may have committed when he was younger.

Quote:
"But tonight there was a coldness in his blood, the face of Hyde was still fresh in his memory, and he felt (as he rarely did) a sick distaste for life. In these low spirits he seemed to feel a threat of danger in the dancing of the firelight on the polished furniture, and in the shadows that moved restlessly across the ceiling"(Stevenson 12).

It’s two weeks later and Dr Jekyll throws a dinner party and after the guests leave Utterson stays behind so he can talk to Jekyll about his will. Jekyll starts to joke about it and says that Utterson cares just as much as Lanyon does about his will. When Utterson tells Jekyll that he is learning more about Hyde his face turns pale and asks him to drop the subject and that talking about it won’t do any good. Utterson presses Jekyll to share the story in confidence so he can help him get out of it. Jekyll says it’s not as bad as he thinks and that he can be rid of Hyde whenever he wants. Jekyll wants to let it be and considers it a private matter. Jekyll says one last thing which is that if he disappears he wants him to take care of Hyde and make sure he gets his rights. Utterson doesn’t like the request but he agrees which he is now aligning himself with evil.
Quote:
"Dr Jekyll's big healthy face turned pale and an angry look came into his eyes. 'I don't want to hear any more,' said he. 'I
thought we'd agreed to drop this matter'(Stevenson 14-15).

This is one year later, no incidents have happened. But then a murder occurs. A servant is looking out the window when below her on the street she witnesses a murder. She recognizes the man because he once visited her employer. He was a small man and evil looking. Mr.Hyde comes across a polite gentleman with white hair who greets Mr.Hyde. Mr.Hyde turns on him with his cane and beats him to death. The maid then calls for help but Hyde is gone when police arrive.They find Carew’s watch,  his money, and a letter addressed to Mr.Utterson in his pocket. When they take the letter to Utterson, he addresses him as one of his clients and a member of the parliament. Utterson guides the police to Hyde’s home because he still knows the address. The maid opens the “door” and informs the police that Hyde isn’t home. When Utterson and the police search the house they figure out that he only uses two rooms and the rest of the house was empty. The rooms looked ransacked and burned papers were near the fireplace. They find the murder weapon which was the broken cane and then the burned remians of Hyde’s check book. They then visit Hyde’s bank to find out that he still has thousands of pounds there. So they know that they will need to wait for Hyde to come and withdraw the money out of the account. After weeks there is no sign of Hyde anywhere. Nobody can describe his appearance as anything but evil. He has no family and no friends. The maid’s dream of when she was looking up at the moon and sky turns into a nightmare. Murder!!!!
Quote:
"All of a sudden, without answering, he started shouting in a burst of wild anger, stamping with his foot, wildly waving his stick, and behaving (as the girl described it) like a madman. The old gentleman took a step back, as if he were very much surprised and perhaps rather offended, and at that Mr Hyde completely lost his temper and struck him to the ground. The next moment, he was stamping on him like a wild animal and raining such violent blows on the fallen body that the girl could hear the bones cracking"(Stevenson 17).

Utterson visits Jekyll in his laboratory where he looks extremely ill. Utterson asks Jekyll if he has heard about Carew's murder and he says he has. We then find out that Utterson was Carew's lawyer as well. He asks Jekyll if he is hiding Mr. Hyde. Jekyll tells Utterson that Hyde has left and that he no longer has a relationship with Hyde and that Utterson will not hear from him ever again and he is not hiding him. (Hyde is no longer committed to taking his potion which is why he said that he will not see Hyde again). After this he gives Utterson a letter asking what he should do with it because he fears it can damage his reputation if he turns it over to the police. The letter is written from Hyde that assures Jekyll he is fleeing the area and Jekyll shouldn't worry about him. Utterson then asks Jekyll if Hyde dictated his will and he agrees and Utterson tells his friend that he may of meant to murder him. He then takes the letter and is ready to leave when he comes across Poole. He asks Poole who delivered the letter and he claims that no letter was even delivered which made Utterson feel worried because Poole had no idea about a letter being delivered. Once Utterson is back home in his office drinking, he asks his chief clerk, Mr. Guest, whos an expert on handwriting to read the letter and give his opinion. He concludes that the writing on Hyde's letter compares to Jekyll's handwriting. He thinks that the same "person" wrote both. He also noticed something off about the handwriting that one of Jekyll's notes slants to the right and Hyde's letter slants to the left. They are in opposite directions. Utterson believes that Jekyll forged the letter for Hyde.
Quote:
"This was a large room, lit by three old windows with iron bars that looked out across a yard. Its furniture included a desk, several glass-fronted cupboards, and a long mirror fixed to the wall. A fire was burning and the lamp was already lit on a shelf above it, and there, close to the warmth, sat Dr Jekyll, looking as sick as a man on his deathbed"(Stevenson 20).

Chapter 6- The Mysterious Death of Dr. Lanyon 

# data[].attributes.body
It's been two months since, time passes by and there is no appearance of Hyde. Jekyll looks more healthy looking and sociable with people, he even devoted some of his time to charity and engaging with friends in activities. Utterson now becomes used to seeing Jekyll on a daily basis. Jekyll holds a dinner party one night that both Utterson and Lanyon attend. The three of them talk to each other at the dinner. Few days later Jekyll shuts Utterson out and then Utterson visits Dr. Lanyon to wonder why Jekyll doesn't want to receive any company. He sees that Lanyon is pale and looks older and has very poor health. He also looks frightened. Lanyon claims he "has had a shock and might not recover" which refers to him dying in a few weeks. Utterson asks if he has seen Jekyll and also says that Jekyll seems sick. Lanyon gets very upset and asks him to not speak about Jekyll to him again. Lanyon says that after he dies he can learn the truth about everything but as of now he will not talk about it. When he gets home Utterson writes to Jekyll asking why he was turned away from his home and why Lanyon would say stuff like that about him and what caused that to happen. He receives a reply the next day and Jekyll doesn't blame Lanyon for the end of their friendship, but agrees it has to end and the doctor says they cannot meet. He said that he can't be surprised if Jekyll refuses to see him bc he is secluding himself. Few weeks later Lanyon dies and the envelope that was left to be open after he died, Utterson opened, that is labeled to only be opened if Jekyll dies or disappears so Utterson puts it in his safe. Utterson tries to continue to visit Jekyll but he refuses to see him so his visits become less and less frequent.
Quote:
"He looked like someone who has been threatened with death. His rosy face had grown pale, he had lost a lot of

weight and most of his hair, and he looked very much older. But what struck the lawyer was not just these signs of sudden decay in his friend's body; he was struck even more by a look in the eye and a strangeness of manner that could only be caused by some deep-seated terror of the mind"(Stevenson 25).

Utterson and Enfield go for a walk the following Sunday passing the door where Enfield saw Hyde enter in, he starts talking about the murder case. Enfield thinks that they will never see Hyde again. Enfield feels foolish for thinking that the door led to Jekyll's home. Utterson then says that he is worried about Jekyll. They walk into a courtyard nearby enjoying the fresh air where they view Jekyll sitting at a window. They invite him outside because of how unhealthy he looks and being outside would be good for him. But Jekyll turns it down and agree to talk where they are. Jekyll all the sudden looks terrified and quickly shuts the window and disappears. Enfield and Utterson silently walk away in shock. Jekyll is loosing control of his form and is turning into Hyde
Quote:
"The yard was very cool and rather dark, though the sky, high overhead, was still bright with sunset. The middle one of the three windows was half open; and the person sitting beside it, taking the air with a miserable look on his face like some hopeless prisoner, was Dr Jekyll"(Stevenson 29).

When Utterson is home, Mr. Poole visits him and tells Utterson that he is extremely afraid that something has happened to Jekyll but won't clarify what it is. So he asks Utterson to come with him to investigate immediately. When they arrive the rest of the servants are gathered in the main area frightened. Poole takes Utterson to Jekyll's lab door and tells him that Utterson is here to see you. He then refuses to see Utterson. Poole insists that the voice that called out to him is not Jekyll's real voice and they believe that someone killed Jekyll but doesn't understand why the murderer would remain in the lab and not run away. Poole tells Utterson how the unknown voice has sent him to numerous chemists to try and get an ingredient that he is desperate for but is not sold in London drug stores. Poole then catches a glimpse of the man in the lab and the man looked nothing like Jekyll because he is too small and that the person was wearing a mask. Utterson thinks Jekyll has been murdered and they both agree that the person in the lab is Hyde so they decide they want to break down the door and prepare the servants if he plans to run away. Two of the servants are sent to the lab door where Enfield sees Jekyll enter. Utterson arms himself with a fireplace poker and Poole grabs an axe. Utterson demands to see Jekyll or else he will break down the door and he begs them not to. Poole then begins to chop through the door. They find Hyde on the floor with a crushed vial of poison in his hand empty. He has poisoned himself and is near death. Utterson and Poole search but can't find any trace of Jekyll. Although they do find some type of chemical which Poole identifies as the drug that he bought Jekyll and then they find an envelope that's addressed to Utterson. There are 3 things inside, the first a copy of Jekyll's will which has been changed to leave everything to Utterson instead of Hyde, and then a note to that has present day's date on it which says to go home and read Lanyon's letter. This makes Utterson think Jekyll may very well still be alive and wonders if Hyde died by suicide or if Jekyll killed him. The third thing was a sealed packet and tells Poole he will return it at night for the police. He goes back to his office to read what was in the sealed packet and Lanyon's letter.
Quote:
"They went up the stairs in silence, and with an occasional

frightened look at the dead body they examined everything in the room, even more thoroughly than before"(Stevenson 39).

This chapter begins with the letter Lanyon intends to have Utterson open after his and Jekyll's death. Lanyon writes that after Jekyll's last dinner party he received a strange letter from him. The letter asked Lanyon to go to Jekyll's home and break into a certain cabinet of Jekyll's laboratory with the help of Poole and remove all the contents in it, then to go back to his house with the cabinet he removed, and wait for the person who would come claim it at midnight. If Lanyon did everything as followed he would soon understand it all. So he did what he was told, went to Jekyll's house, broke into the cabinet with a locksmith and Poole, and returned back home with it. Lanyon found vials of what it looked like to be salt and a red liquid. The cabinet also contained a notebook which seemed to be years of different experiments with dates on them marked with words like "failure" or "double" that were scattered on the pages. But, the notebook gave no insight to what the experiments were. Lanyon waited for the "visitor" to come at midnight, thinking Jekyll was crazy. But then at midnight an old evil looking man appeared. It was obvious it was Mr.Hyde but Lanyon never had seen him before, he introduced himself as that. Hyde was nervous and excited and only seemed interested in the contents of what was in the cabinet. He avoided small talk. Lanyon took him to where the cabinet was and Hyde then asked for a graduated glass. He took that glass and mixed the ingredients that were in the cabinet to form a purple liquid which then turned to become green. He asked Lanyon if he should leave and take the potion with him or if he should stay and drink it in front of Lanyon which would allow him to witness something that would "stagger the unbelief of satan" and he would see what happens next. Lanyon said that he already had become so involved in this whole thing that why not see the end of it. So Hyde drinks it and transforms into Jekyll. Lanyon now knows that Jekyll is Hyde and one can turn into the other with the potion. When Jekyll turns he tells Lanyon something that is "too shocking" to repeat and that the horror of what just happened has wrecked him which will make him die soon. His narrative ends here.
Quote: "My life is shaken to its roots; sleep has left me, and its terror sits by me at all hours of the day and night. I feel that my last day is coming, and that I must die; but still I should die in disbelief"(Stevenson 48).

Chapter 10-Jekyll's Full Statement of the Case

# data[].attributes.body
This chapter is the letter that Jekyll leaves for Utterson in the laboratory. It is narrated by Dr. Jekyll explaining what he did and why. It starts with him saying he has led a dishonest life because of him acting one way in public and another in private. His scientific interests led him to mystical studies, he hoped to find some solution to his own split nature. His studies aligned with this reality and Jekyll formulated a drug to literally split these two identities that created a second body and personality. He took the potion he made, knowing he was risking his life but also remained with hope that he made a great discovery. As he takes it he experiences an immense amount of pain and nausea and shrinks and becomes deformed to "Mr. Hyde" which also made him feel very reckless. This side of him represented his evil side alone. Hyde was a younger man, the personification of Jekyll's evil side emerged several years after Jekyll's own birth while Jekyll was becoming too old to act upon his impulses. Transforming himself into Hyde became a welcome outlet for Jekyll's passions. He enjoyed living as Hyde. Jekyll set up a home and a bank account for Hyde and each time he transformed into Hyde he felt no guilt for for things he does when he is Hyde. Two months before the Carew murder Jekyll first found a cause for concern on how Hyde was acting. While asleep as Jekyll one night he involuntarily transformed into Hyde without the help of the potion and he awakes in the body of his darker side. This convinced him that he must deal with his transformations or risk being trapped in Hyde's body forever. After two months as being Jekyll, he took the potion again, which gave him the urge to beat Carew to death and showed no remorse for killing him. Jekyll on the other hand begged for forgiveness and prayed to god even before his transformation was complete. This convinced Jekyll to never transform to Hyde again because of how horrifying it was. Eventually, Jekyll indulged in some of his darker desires in his own person. This "dip" into darkness proved that it can cause another transformation into Hyde. As Hyde he knew that if he went back home the police would seize him for the murder of Carew. He wouldn't be able to get his potions without being captured. This was when he sent a word to Lanyon telling him to break into his lab and get his potions. In his last hours Hyde grew stronger as Jekyll grew weaker. The salt that was necessary for the potion started to run out so Jekyll ordered more to only figure out that the mineral didn't have the same effect. The original salt must of contained a impurity that made the potion. He realized that he must become Hyde permanently  . He took the last potion to buy him time to compose this final letter. Jekyll wrote that he doesn't know if he will be arrested, if he will kill himself, or hanged. But by the time Utterson gets his hands on this letter and reads it Jekyll will be gone.
Quote:
"I experienced aching bones, violent sickness, and a sense of horror that cannot be worse at the hour of birth or death"(Stevenson 50).
