P.

I
had
already
sealed
this
up
when
a
fresh
terror
struck
upon
my
soul
.
It
is
possible
that
the
post-office
may
fail
me
,
and
this
letter
not
come
into
your
hands
until
to-morrow
morning
.
In
that
case
,
dear
Lanyon
,
do
my
errand
when
it
shall
be
most
convenient
for
you
in
the
course
of
the
day
;
and
once
more
expect
my
messenger
at
midnight
.
It
may
then
already
be
too
late
;
and
if
that
night
passes
without
event
,
you
will
know
that
you
have
seen
the
last
of
Henry
Jekyll
.
"
Upon
the
reading
of
this
letter
,
I
made
sure
my
colleague
was
insane
;
but
till
that
was
proved
beyond
the
possibility
of
doubt
,
I
felt
bound
to
do
as
he
requested
.
The
less
I
understood
of
this
farrago
,
the
less
I
was
in
a
position
to
judge
of
its
importance
;
and
an
appeal
so
worded
could
not
be
set
aside
without
a
grave
responsibility
.
I
rose
accordingly
from
table
,
got
into
a
hansom
,
and
drove
straight
to
Jekyll
's
house
.
The
butler
was
awaiting
my
arrival
;
he
had
received
by
the
same
post
as
mine
a
registered
letter
of
instruction
,
and
had
sent
at
once
for
a
locksmith
and
a
carpenter
.
The
tradesmen
came
while
we
were
yet
speaking
;
and
we
moved
in
a
body
to
old
Dr.
Denman
's
surgical
theatre
,
from
which
(
as
you
are
doubtless
aware
)
Jekyll
's
private
cabinet
is
most
conveniently
entered
.
The
door
was
very
strong
,
the
lock
excellent
;
the
carpenter
avowed
he
would
have
great
trouble
and
have
to
do
much
damage
,
if
force
were
to
be
used
;
and
the
locksmith
was
near
despair
.
But
this
last
was
a
handy
fellow
,
and
after
two
hours
'
work
,
the
door
stood
open
.
The
press
marked
E
was
unlocked
;
and
I
took
out
the
drawer
,
had
it
filled
up
with
straw
and
tied
in
a
sheet
,
and
returned
with
it
to
Cavendish
Square
.
Here
I
proceeded
to
examine
its
contents
.
The
powders
were
neatly
enough
made
up
,
but
not
with
the
nicety
of
the
dispensing
chemist
;
so
that
it
was
plain
they
were
of
Jekyll
's
private
manufacture
;
and
when
I
opened
one
of
the
wrappers
I
found
what
seemed
to
me
a
simple
crystalline
salt
of
a
white
colour
.
The
phial
,
to
which
I
next
turned
my
attention
,
might
have
been
about
half-full
of
a
blood-red
liquor
,
which
was
highly
pungent
to
the
sense
of
smell
and
seemed
to
me
to
contain
phosphorus
and
some
volatile
ether
.
At
the
other
ingredients
I
could
make
no
guess
.
The
book
was
an
ordinary
version-book
and
contained
little
but
a
series
of
dates
.
These
covered
a
period
of
many
years
,
but
I
observed
that
the
entries
ceased
nearly
a
year
ago
and
quite
abruptly
.
Here
and
there
a
brief
remark
was
appended
to
a
date
,
usually
no
more
than
a
single
word
:
"
double
"
occurring
perhaps
six
times
in
a
total
of
several
hundred
entries
;
and
once
very
early
in
the
list
and
followed
by
several
marks
of
exclamation
,
"
total
failure
!!!
"
All
this
,
though
it
whetted
my
curiosity
,
told
me
little
that
was
definite
.
Here
were
a
phial
of
some
tincture
,
a
paper
of
some
salt
,
and
the
record
of
a
series
of
experiments
that
had
led
(
like
too
many
of
Jekyll
's
investigations
)
to
no
end
of
practical
usefulness
.
How
could
the
presence
of
these
articles
in
my
house
affect
either
the
honour
,
the
sanity
,
or
the
life
of
my
flighty
colleague
?
If
his
messenger
could
go
to
one
place
,
why
could
he
not
go
to
another
?
And
even
granting
some
impediment
,
why
was
this
gentleman
to
be
received
by
me
in
secret
?
The
more
I
reflected
the
more
convinced
I
grew
that
I
was
dealing
with
a
case
of
cerebral
disease
:
and
though
I
dismissed
my
servants
to
bed
,
I
loaded
an
old
revolver
,
that
I
might
be
found
in
some
posture
of
self-defence
.
Twelve
o'clock
had
scarce
rung
out
over
London
,
ere
the
knocker
sounded
very
gently
on
the
door
.
I
went
myself
at
the
summons
,
and
found
a
small
man
crouching
against
the
pillars
of
the
portico
.
"
Are
you
come
from
Dr.
Jekyll
?
"
I
asked
.
He
told
me
"
yes
"
by
a
constrained
gesture
;
and
when
I
had
bidden
him
enter
,
he
did
not
obey
me
without
a
searching
backward
glance
into
the
darkness
of
the
square
.
There
was
a
policeman
not
far
off
,
advancing
with
his
bull
's
eye
open
;
and
at
the
sight
,
I
thought
my
visitor
started
and
made
greater
haste
.
