Dr. Lanyon and Dr. Jekyll argue over Jekyll's scientific experiments and their ethical implications. Jekyll believes in pushing the boundaries of science and embracing new discoveries, while Lanyon is more cautious and concerned about the potential consequences of Jekyll's work. Their disagreement reflects a larger debate about the responsibility of scientists and the ethics of scientific innovation.
Dr Lanyon discovered that Mr Hyde was a metamorphosis of Dr Jekyll. Lanyon saw Mr Hyde drink a potion and metamorphose into Dr Jekyll.
Dr. Jekyll first told Mr. Utterson the truth about Mr. Hyde. Utterson was Jekyll's lawyer and friend, and Jekyll confided in him about the dual nature of his relationship with Hyde.
Dr. Lanyon's letter in "Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde" was addressed to Dr. John Utterson. In the letter, Lanyon expresses his concerns about Dr. Jekyll's experiments and reveals his disapproval of Jekyll's scientific pursuits, which he deems unorthodox. The letter ultimately serves to convey Lanyon's shock and the disturbing events that transpired between Jekyll and Hyde.
Dr. Hastie Lanyon is important in "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde" because he serves as a foil to Dr. Jekyll, representing the traditional scientific viewpoint. His shock at Jekyll's transformation into Hyde adds depth to the story and helps to highlight the moral implications of Jekyll's experiments. Lanyon's death is also significant as it shows the consequences of meddling with nature.
In Chapter 6 of "The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde," Dr. Lanyon receives a letter from Dr. Jekyll instructing him to go to Jekyll's house, retrieve a specific drawer, and bring it back to his own house. Dr. Lanyon is horrified by what he finds in the drawer and the shocking revelation about Dr. Jekyll's true nature that it reveals. This discovery ultimately leads to Dr. Lanyon's decline in health and his death.

Dr. Jekyll asks Dr. Lanyon to retrieve a drawer containing some chemicals and a book from his laboratory.
After visiting Dr. Lanyon, Dr. Jekyll began experiencing a transformation into Mr. Hyde without the use of the potion. This transformation occurred involuntarily and started to happen more frequently, eventually leading to Jekyll losing control over when he would become Hyde.
He believes Dr. Jekyll is insane.
Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, who represents Jekyll's darker side, ultimately leads to the deterioration of Jekyll's relationships, including with his friend Dr. Lanyon. Lanyon becomes horrified by Jekyll's experiments with the duality of human nature and the transformation into Hyde. This moral and scientific conflict drives a wedge between them, as Lanyon cannot accept Jekyll's actions and the implications of his research. Ultimately, their friendship is irreparably damaged by Jekyll's obsession with his darker side.
