"ioth december, 18-
"dear lanyon, --you are one of my oldest friends; and
although we may have differed at times on scientific
questions, i cannot remember, at least on my side, any
break in our affection. there was never a day when, if you
had said to me, 'jekyll, my life, my honour, my reason,
depend upon you,' i would not have sacrificed my left
hand to you. lanyon my life, my honour, my reason,
are all at your mercy; if you fail me to-night, i am lost.
you might suppose, after this preface, that i am going to
ask you for something dishonourable to grant. judge for
yourself."

Dr. Jekyll is in distress and believes that he is at Dr Lanyon's mercy for help.

Explanation:

We see from his letter that Dr. Jekyll is very distress. He uses a phrase like "I am lost" and says his whole life and honor depend on Lanyon, words that very clearly paint the picture of the agony and worry.

We see that he thinks all his life depends on Lanyon's mercy and his help, even though there is a hint the request might be dishonorable for some.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
