Question 10
To answer this, we refer to the context of "The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde". After the cheque mystery, Enfield calls the house with the door "the Black Mail House" (or sometimes related to the mystery, associating it with the sinister events around Hyde). He guesses there's some foul play, so the house with the door (which is connected to Hyde) is called this based on his suspicions about the cheque (likely related to blackmail or shady dealings).
From the text of "The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde", the quote is “...The buildings are so packed together about the court, that it’s hard to say where one begins and another ends.” This is about the dense packing of buildings around the court, making boundaries unclear.
In "The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde", the man who trampled the child is Mr. Edward Hyde. Mr. Enfield describes him as having a very disturbing, almost inhuman appearance. He says Hyde's look makes people feel uncomfortable, that there's something "wrong" with his appearance, a sense of deformity of soul showing in his face, and that he gives an impression of being evil or repulsive.
