Another revolutionary was Rowland Mulkern, an Irish nationalist who was a professional soldier in the British army. In 1896 in London, he befriended Dr Sun Yat-sen after he had been released from 11 days captivity in the Chinese embassy. Like many foreigners, he was inspired by Sun; he worked as his bodyguard in London and followed him to Hong Kong. He took part in the second uprising Sun organized, in Huizhou in 1900; it was one of 10 failed rebellions before the successful one, in Wuhan in 1911.
