These three are not given any power by the king for fear that they might recant and return to Hinduism, and raise a revolt against the crown. This is what happened to Fida,e Khan when he was governor of Allahabad. He deceived a rajah by promises of making him a greater man than before. But when he was in his power, he kept him a prisoner and carried him away to the city of Lahor, and there forced him to become a Mahomedan, ordering him to receive weekly one hundred strokes with a whip. The rajah, unable to stand this torture, fell ill, and I treated him for the illness and cured him without any charge. Afterwards I lent him one hundred and ten rupees, which he employed in his journey. For immediately afterwards he took to flight and sought shelter in his own country, and returned to Hinduism. Then he began incursions upon the king's territory, and plundered as much as he could. He was, however, ungrateful so far as I was concerned, for he never recalled to mind the good turn I had done him. Usually these rajahs have such names as the following : Quesor Sing	Kesar Singh	Yellow Lion Bau Sing	Bhao Singh	Wishing to be a Lion Gueret Sing	Kirat Singh	Lion's Beauty Guesen Sing	Kishan Singh	Black Lion Bessen Sing	Bishan Singh	Lion's Whelp Bim Sing	Bhim Singh	Lion's Strength Caliam Sing	Kaliyan Singh	Lively Lion Dal Sing	Dal Singh	Lion's Army Sajan Sing	Sujan Singh	Experienced Lion Bam Sing	Ram Singh	God's Lion Dalian Sing	Daliyan Singh	Adverse to Lions
