Good works?""About the village, sir. Reading to the bedridden - chatting with the sick - that sort of thing, sir. We can but trust that good results will ensue.""Yes, I suppose so," I said doubtfully. "But, by gosh, if I were a sick man I'd hate to have a looney like young Bingo coming and gibbering at my bedside.

The conversation reflects the protagonist's skepticism about the value of visiting sick individuals. The mention of performing good works, like reading to the bedridden and chatting with the sick, suggests an intention to provide comfort. However, there's an underlying doubt about the effectiveness of such efforts, especially when considering the company that might be providing it.

The protagonist expresses concern about the impact a seemingly eccentric character, like young Bingo, might have on a sick person. This highlights a humorous yet critical perspective on how good intentions can sometimes be undermined by the personalities involved in delivering aid. Such interactions may not always result in the comforting experience that was initially hoped for.
