Jekyll’s letter to Lanyon in the excerpt from The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde create suspense in the story through following ways:

1. Poole had no knowledge of a letter arriving by messenger (like Jekyll had claimed), only through the mail.

2. Jekyll claims he "accidentally" burned the envelope before he realized whom it was from.
