Bedlam in A Christmas Carol

In a Christmas Carol on page 6 it is referenced that there was bedlam at the time but didn’t talk much about it.  To them it was a scary place they didn’t want to go.  For example no matter the emotions or state of being of another person Scrooge was still nasty to everyone.
