The late HK Seven Star Master Wong Hon Fun once wrote in an article:
In the Spring of the 24th year of the Republic, Grandmaster Fan Xudong passed away in his hometown at the age of 95 years old.
"24th year of the Republic" would be 1936. Fan Xudong was then born in the year 1841 (21st year of the reign of Emperor Daoguang).

The Mountaintop no height eschews;
The Sea eschews no deep.
And the Duke of Zhou spat out his meal
An Empire's trust to keep.
