Ensign Arthur Marcus Hill Cheek (31 July 1840 – 16 June 1857) was a Bengal Army officer known posthumously as "the young martyr of Allahabad." Cheek joined the Bengal army in February 1857, and on 28 April arrived in India, where he was posted to the 6th Regiment of Bengal Native Infantry. On 6 June, the regiment mutinied as part of the Indian Rebellion of 1857, and Cheek was injured and captured by mutinous sepoys before dying of his injuries in captivity on 16 June. Cheek's fellow prisoners claimed that he had refused to renounce his Christian faith and convert to Islam while in captivity, thus transforming him into a martyr among Christian circles in Britain and India.
