How does Dr. Jekyll’s confession answer questions about the mysterious cheque?

Jekyll’s confession explains that, after Hyde trampled the girl, Jekyll paid the family with a cheque drawn on his own account to settle the matter. He also describes taking precautions later, including arranging for Hyde to have access to money and documents in his own name, so Jekyll would not have to explain another suspicious payment. Thus, the confession explains both the cheque and Jekyll’s efforts to prevent the problem from recurring.
