The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde

Today I started reading the first chapter of The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. The story takes place in London. The first character that was introduced to me was Mr. Utterson. Mr. Utterson is a lawyer. He is a very dreary man. He seemed to be a very serious and dusty man. Being around groups of people, or drinking wine that appealed to him brought him a small amount of joy. My. Utterson enjoys the theatre but hasn't gone to one in 20 years. He has a very high tolerance for others. he is a man of good nature and he is modest. His friends are people that he has known for a long time, people just like him. That's why he has become such good friends with the second character I was introduced to, Mr. Richard Enfield. Mr. Richard Enfield is a very well known man around town. He is just like Mr. Utterson. People that witness them walking together say that they say nothing to each other, and that they look very dull. Both of the men have a store where they like to work uninterrupted. They enjoy working. Mr. Enfield begins telling Mr. Utterson a story about a man who helped a boy up when he ran into someone. The man who helped the boy up is a man by the name of Hyde. Mr. Enfild said that Hyde was very hard to describe. In the next chapter they will begin searching for Mr. Hyde.
