The Strange case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde is set in Victorian London. The street where Edward Hyde lives is shrouded in darkness, mirroring his cruelty and almost conspiring against society. It begins in Soho, a down market part of London, where gloom and creepiness are created by the language Stevenson uses and pervades the rest of the novel.

Well, I would not use it in front of a womans name. 'Mr.' would be used for a man's name, 'Mrs.' would be used for a married woman, 'Miss' would be used for an unmarried woman, and 'Ms.' would be used for a single person, perhaps divorced.
Edgar Allen Poe wrote The Raven when Stevenson was alive. This could have influenced him as he read a lot of books (he wasnt allowed outside his house due to sick health) and this could have easily triggered the series of nightmares that created Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde.
He met him because dr. Jekyll and mr. Hyde were going to kill each other but they didn't want him to know so they killed him first.
Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde was initially sold as a paperback for one shilling in the UK and one dollar in the U.S. Within the next six months close to forty thousand copies were sold. By 1901 it was estimated to have sold over 250,000 copies. Many people think of it as a tale of duality and the struggle of doing what is right between the two sides - good and evil. Also the struggle of keeping two personalities in one body.
Jekyll was unable to find a necessary ingredient to make his potion. Ironically, Jekyll learns that this most necessary ingredient was in the first instance of his experiments, sullied. Subsequent supplies are pure and thus lacking the quality that makes the potion successful for his experiments. His ability to change back from Hyde into Jekyll slowly vanished. Jekyll writes that even as he composes his letter he knows that he will soon become Hyde permanently, and he wonders if Hyde will face execution for his crimes or choose to kill himself. Jekyll notes that, in either case, the end of his letter marks the end of the life of Dr Jekyll. He ends the letter saying "This is the end of Dr Jekyll. Goodbye... Good..." . With these words, both the document and the novel come to a close.
In Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, the writer shows us that courage can lead us to explore the unfamiliar in order to learn new things. However, courage on its own, without the guidance of a sense of responsibility and wisdom, can be very dangerous. Jekyll's research may be a breakthrough for science, but it is a threat to society. Utterson, however, reveals courage which is guided by wisdom when he chooses to help Jekyll. Utterson is being both loyal as well as wise. He knows that it would be dangerous to reveal what happened in case someone else tried the same thing.
