  郑立本,江苏萧县人。父相德,坐罪戍新疆,立本方四岁。年十八,辞母以求父,母哭而诫之曰:“汝父左手小指缺一节,中有横纹,幸相值,以此为验。”立本贫无赀,乞且行,至库车。闻父戍绥来,绥来至库车,三千馀里,张格尔乱未定,官道塞,乃里粮求路,独行迷失道,还库车。待乱定,乃行至绥来,则父殁已数年。相德在戍授同戍子弟读,殁,弟子为治葬。立本哭墓而病,居二年,相德弟子力护视,故得不死。病起,启父瘗,体久化,左手独存小指,缺一节,有横纹,如母言。立本骇恸,闻其事者皆叹异,乃负骨归葬,往还凡八年。同治中,大学士曾国藩驻军徐州,闻立本事,招往见,立本举孟子召役往,召见不往语,谢不往见。国藩高其义,檄知县以时存问。
