* There is some confusion as to Jaffers' full name in the novel. When he is introduced, his name is given as "'''Mr. Bobby Jaffers'''." However when the [[List of Unnamed Characters in The Invisible Man|mariner]] is reading aloud from a newspaper article about Griffin's attack in Iping, the paper gives Jaffers' name as "'''Mr. J.A. Jaffers'''." For this reason he is listed here as simply "Constable Jaffers."
