+ANNOTATIONS
+
+I've heard about Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde before. It's about a
+werewolf-like scenario, I think, where they are the same person but Mr
+Hyde is like a monster or something. Dr Jekyll is a medical doctor, I
+think, but I don't know much else.
+
+Opening sentence:
+"Mr. UTTERSON the lawyer was a man of a rugged coun-tenance, that was
+never lighted by a smile; cold, scanty and embarrassed in discourse;
+backward in sentiment; lean, long, dusty, dreary, and yet somehow
+lovable."
+
+Setting: London, Physician-class
+
+CHAPTER ONE (Story of the Door)
+What does this title mean?
+
+Kindly but reserved man. (!Utterson, lawyer)
+Is he reserved deliberately, and why does this reservation extend to a
+lack of direct spoken kindliness?
+It appears he is supportive, but insufficiently discerning, or maybe he
+is genuine and just doesn't work too hard in manipulating socially
+("modest").
+Richard Enfield (I've heard that name before) is his friend, and appears
+to be similarly disinclined.
+There is a dingy building in a bright street of a dingy neighborhood.
+A "damned Juggernaut" runs over a small girl in an empty street. But how
+is it related? Is this Dr Jekyll? "one look, so ugly?" No, the doctor is
+Jekyll, and he murderously hates [got to be a better word] the man who
+lives in the terrible, uninviting building of the rich man (readily has
+100 pounds and 10 pounds in gold) who was also famous or paying with a
+famous person's cheque. -- Enfield
+Oh wait this isn't the same door, maybe, but this guy doesn't ask
+questions because he fears negative outcomes. (huh, maybe part of the
+same ungregariousness they share, because Utterson agrees).
+So Hyde is the man who walked over the child, and he is inexplicable.
+
+CHAPTER TWO (Search for Mr Hyde)
+
+Jekyll leaves all his possessions to Hyde in case of his own
+disappearance.
+
+"Such unscientific balderdash would have estranged Damon and Pythias"
+- Doctor Landon
+Jekyll had become "too fanciful"
+
+Utterson seeks Mr Hyde and meets him.
+Why does he put everyone at unease?
+He is pale, dwarfish but without clear malformity.
+And he has offputting mannerisms, but that's not enough for loathing.
+It does appear to be supernatural.
+This feels like cosmic horror (even though it pretty clearly isn't thus
+far).
+
+"He [Hyde] mostly comes and goes by the laboratory." and never stays for
+dinner.
+
+Utterson worries for Jekyll's welfare, but this worry is motivated by
+hatred for Hyde.
+
+CHAPTER THREE (Dr Jekyll was quite at ease)
+
+Utterson's dry, ungay manner is impressed.
+Jekyll calls it a private matter where he is free (uncoerced) by Hyde,
+but he is merely "interested."
+And Jekyll, when interrogated by Utterson, dismisses it as private.
+Lanyon and Jekyll are sort of rivals, but Jekyll claims to like Lanyon
+as a person despite Lanyon criticizing Jekyll's work.
+Note: I'm pretty sure they're the same person from prior knowledge, so
+each telling the other everything (like "I didn't think you would lie")
+is in line with this.
+
+CHAPTER FOUR (The Carew Murder Case)
+
+Hyde kills some man with Jekyll's cane, and the police get involved.
+Utterson comes forward with evidence after high-profile police
+investigation starts, and Hyde has abandoned his house, claiming to only
+leave for one hour, but his quarters are ransacked and pocketbook
+burned.
+His house is occupied by an "evil" but not disqueting old woman.
+
+CHAPTER FIVE (Incident of the Letter)
+
+"I have grounds for certainty that I cannot share with any one."
+I'm thinking Frankenstein's monster situation.
+Oh! It's an MP who's been murdered.
+And now Jekyll is worried about scandal and is "done with" Hyde.
+According to Mr Guest (handwriting analyst and Utterson's confidante),
+the letter has been forged by Jekyll because the handwriting is similar.
+Other peculiar things: Jekyll's servant hadn't received any mail, and
+Hyde's letter had been in the laboratory (an old dissecting chamber).
+
+CHAPTER SIX (Remarkable Incident of Dr Lanyon)
+
+Dr Jekyll moves past the controversy and becomes his old self, a good
+party host, entertainer, benefactor (charity, religion).
+Supposedly falls ill, so Utterson visits Dr Lanyon who is sick with
+something (matter of weeks he says), whom never wants to see Jekyll
+again.
+Dr Lanyon dies a week later and funeral happens.
+Utterson has a letter from Lanyon to open in case of death or
+disappearance of Jekyll.
+Jekyll continues to be a recluse and spends more and more time in
+laboratory.
+
+CHAPTER SEVEN (Incident at the Window)
+
+Oops, didn't realize this but probably should have: the ominous door is
+a back entrance to Dr Jekyll's house.
+They talk to him, but Jekyll is "very low," and smiles but then gives a
+look of "abject terror and despair."
+
+CHAPTER EIGHT (The Last Night)
+
+Dr Jekyll needs drugs to cure himself of something.
+All his staff are worried, especially Poole.
+He has become irritable and inscrutable, demanding raw materials from
+chemists to make a drug, and complains they are not pure.
+He is a recluse, so the demands are in form of paper, and he remains all
+day in his chamber.
+Actually, he refuses to be seen because he is a horrible sight or
+something.
+He wears a mask even to surreptitiously search for something.
+Jekyll has become dwarven despite his original high stature
+    (It's Hyde, and Poole thinks it's some sort of creature)
+They successfully break into the cabinet and find Hyde twitching on the
+ground.
+Then they search for Jekyll's body or evidence.
+They find evidence of experiment, the drug that Poole brought him from
+the chemist, assorted in various cups.
+And a final will and testament, a personal letter, and a third
+enclosure.
+The will declares Utterson Jekyll's recipient, the personal letter
+declaring the end is near and speaking of Lanyon's recounting of the
+tale as well as his own uncounting.
+Calls himself "unworthy and unhappy."
