Chapter 4: The Carew Murder Case
Summary:
Nearly a year later, a respected member of London society, Sir Danvers Carew, is murdered. A maid, sitting by her window in the early morning hours, witnesses the event. She is looking out the window, feeling romantically at one with the world, when she sees a white-haired old man walking along a nearby path. She observes that he meets another, smaller man, whom she recognizes as Mr. Hyde. Suddenly Mr. Hyde stops, furious, and attacks the man, beating him to a pulp with a cane. The maid faints upon witnessing such horror. When she wakes up a few hours later, she immediately calls the police, who find the victim's body. Sir Carew had with him a purse, some gold and a letter addressed to Mr. Utterson. The police then contact Utterson, who identifies the victim as Sir Danvers Carew, a member of Parliament. Knowing the identity of the attacker, Mr. Utterson takes the chief constable to Mr. Hyde's house. The police find the rooms of Hyde's house ransacked: clothes strewn everywhere, a piece of the cane used to murder Danvers Carew in a corner and the remains of a burnt checkbook on one of the tables. The police soon discover that Mr. Hyde has disappeared. They cannot find him anywhere, nor are they able to trace anything from his past. Moreover, those who have seen him are unable to describe him in detail, although they generally agree in pointing out his evil appearance.
Analysis:
This chapter reveals the extent of Hyde's evil. He brutally murders an innocent man, without prior provocation or apparent reason. Sir Danvers Carew is the second victim of Hyde's violence. Enfield witnesses the scene of Hyde trampling a girl, but he does not kill her, or even seriously injure her. Rather, his behavior seemed to simply ignore the girl's humanity, or her right to walk down the same street as him. In contrast, Sir Danvers Carew is brutally murdered, seemingly for no reason. It seems that Hyde kills him simply to demonstrate his power and unleash his evil. Thus, Hyde's evil seems to be gaining strength, heralding an impending tragedy.
Throughout this chapter, Utterson again demonstrates his honor, loyalty, and strong logic. He appears immediately when summoned by the police, and provides them with a wealth of information to find the killer, Mr. Hyde. However, he stops short of telling the police about the connection between Hyde and Dr. Jekyll. Therefore, Utterson acts as a responsible member of society by assisting in the search for a murderer, but he is also loyal to his friend, Dr. Jekyll.
A little earlier in the novel, Utterson dreams of a nightmarish London through which Hyde, the Juggernaut, roams and wrecks. In this chapter, Utterson's dream has come true. Just as he feared, the monstrous Hyde has been wreaking violent havoc in the city of London. In fact, on his way to the scene of the murder, Utterson notices how the London fog makes the city look like "some nightmarish city." Stevenson uses highly descriptive imagery in this section, just as he did in Utterson's dream, to trap the reader in the work and create a powerful experience.
In this chapter we also see the importance of written documents within the novel, specifically in relation to Mr. Utterson. The beginning of the novel focuses on Jekyll's will, and in this chapter, Sir Danvers Carew's letter to Utterson connects Utterson to the murder. Clearly, Utterson is deeply integrated into London high society, not only socially, but also through his work as a lawyer. Although we do not know what Sir Danvers Carew's letter contains, its mere existence demonstrates Utterson's important role in London society. Later in the novel the written documents will become even more important, for it is from them that Utterson will finally discover the truth about the mystery of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.
Chapter 5: The Letter Incident
Summary:
On the same day as the murder, Mr. Utterson goes to Dr. Jekyll's house and meets him in his laboratory. Utterson and Jekyll discuss the unfortunate news that Sir Danvers Carew is dead, presumably murdered by Mr. Hyde. Jekyll swears that he is not hiding Hyde and that he is "done with him for good." Jekyll also states that he has received a letter from Hyde, and shows it to Utterson. The letter thanks Jekyll for his kindness and urges him to stop worrying about his safety, as he has an assured escape route. Dr. Jekyll does not have the envelope and claims that he burned it after receiving the letter in hand. Jekyll asks Utterson what he is doing.
