>From "The Golden Bough", by Sir James Frazer:

> ... a sect in the Punjaub worshipped a deity whom they
> called Nikkal Sen.  This Nikkal Sen was no other than the
> redoubted General Nicholson, and nothing that the general
> could do or say damped the ardour of his adorers.  The
> more he punished them, the greater grew the religious awe
> with which they worshipped him.

Another richh sighting.
