character
The character i am most drawn to is Mr. Hyde. society at the time valued manner and gentle men. Mr. Hyde however is the complete opposite. First, he runs right over a young girl and then offers to pay the family 100 pounds(English currency). Then a will from Dr. Jekyell shows up saying if Dr. Jekyell has disappeared for three months or longer Mr. Hyde should 'stop into Dr. Jeykell's shoes'. Finally Mr. Hyde supposedly murdered a man.

Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde
Having read the article Mental Illness In The 19 Century by Carrie Hughes it explains how mental people were treated in the 19 century. Doctors would always blame mentally ill people for being possessed by a witch or a demonic being. Previously if you were mentally ill you were suppose to stay home or you would be imprisoned.
