Blog Assignment #3

              In the book, The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, the author Robert Loius Stevenson is a writer of the nineth century. In the beginning of the the story he emphasizes on Mr Utterson. For example, in the first paragraph of "The Story of the Door," Stevenson descibed Mr. Utterson with detail to make him a key person throughout the passage.
              Stevenson says," MR UTTERSON the lawyer was a man of a rugged countenance that was never lighted by a smile; cold, scanty, and embarrassed in discourse; backward in sentiment; lean, dusty, dreary and yet somehow lovable. Stevenson makes Mr. Utterson cantradict himself because he is a cold man, but at the same he is a nice person. Mr. Utterson has a rare personality because he is serious but a person with morals. In the past people of the nineth century had morals and education and that is what Mr. Utterson shows in the first paragraph of in The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.
