"If anyone knows, it will be Lanyon,” he had thought.

Read the excerpt from chapter 4 of The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.This last, however, was not so easy of accomplishment; for Mr. Hyde had numbered few familiars—even the master of the servant maid had only seen him twice; his family could nowhere be traced; he had never been photographed; and the few who could describe him differed widely, as common observers will.
