杨临，桐城人。
明史卷二百七十七 列传第一百六十五：
临，字武公，桐城人，兵部侍郎晋之弟。文骢招入幕，奏为职方主事，竟与同死。
其时起兵旁掠郡县者有吴易，字日生，吴江人。生有膂力，跅弛不羁。崇祯末，成进士。福王时，谒史可法于扬州。可法异其才，题授职方主事，为己监军。明年，奉檄征饷江南，未还而扬州失，已而吴江亦失。易走太湖，与同邑举人孙兆奎，诸生沈自駉、自炳，武进吴福之等谋举兵。旬日得千余人，屯于长白荡，出没旁近诸县，道路为梗。唐王闻之，授兵部右侍郎兼右佥都御史，总督江南诸军。文骢奏易斩获多，进为兵部尚书。鲁王亦授易兵部侍郎，封长兴伯。八月，大清兵至，易遂败走。父承绪、妻沈及女皆投水死，自駉、自炳、福之亦死焉，兆奎被获，一军尽歼。明年，易乡人周瑞复聚众长白荡，迎易入其营。八月，事泄被获，死之。福之，钟峦子也。兆奎兵败时，虑易妻女被辱，视其死而后行，故被获。械至江宁，死之。
