Biography

李复新,湖北襄城人。
清史稿卷四百九十八 列传二百八十五:
  李复新,湖北襄城人。崇祯末岁饥,复新出籴於郾。土寇贾成伦劫杀其父际春,复新归,痛甚,誓复仇。时方乱,法不行,而成伦悍甚,复新乃谬懦示无复仇意,成伦易之。顺治初,复新始告官,狱成,会赦,成伦得减死。吏监诣徒所,复新伏道旁,俟其至,举大石击之,死。诣县请就刑,县愍其孝,上府,请勿竟狱,且旌表其门。府駮议,谓成伦已遇赦减死,复新擅杀,当用杀人律坐罪。县有老掾复具牍上府曰:“礼言父母之仇,不共戴天。又言报仇者,书于士杀之无罪。赦罪者一时之仁,复仇者千古之义。成伦之罪,可赦於朝廷,复新之仇,难宽於人子。成伦且欲原贷,复新不免极刑,平允之论,似不如是。复新父子何辜,并遭大戮?凡有人心,谁不哀矜!宜贳以无罪,仍旌其孝。”府乃用县议,表其门日“孝烈”。
