C4: Summary

Chapter 4: Doctor Jekyll receives a letter

Summary:

Mr Utterson visits Dr Jekyll again. The doctor had already heard about the murder, as the newsboys were spreading the story everywhere. Mr Utterson expresses his worries about his clients, Sir Danvers Carew and Dr Jekyll, and he says that he wants to know what's going on. The doctor says that nobody will never see Mr Hyde again, and he gives to Mr Utterson a letter that he has received from Mr Hyde. Dr Jekyll doesn't care anymore for Mr Hyde, but now he's worried for his own reputation. With it, Mr Utterson discovers that Mr Hyde had plans to murder Dr Jekyll, that's why he had to run away. 

After his visit to Dr Jekyll, Mr Utterson goes to his chief's house, Mr Guest, as he had also been in touch with Dr Jekyll. The lawyer gave the letter to Mr Guest because he was interested in the study of handwriting. Then Mr Utterson shows to Mr Guest the letter for Dr Jekyll's dinner party. Mr Guest compares both letters and, surprisingly, he discovers that both are very simmilar.
