Biography

黄观,贵池人。
明史卷一百四十三 列传第三十一:
  黄观,字伯澜,一字尚宾,贵池人。父赘许,从许姓。受学于元待制黄冔。冔死节,观益自励。洪武中,贡入太学。绘父母墓为图,赡拜辄泪下。二十四年,会试、廷试皆第一。累官礼部右侍郎,乃奏复姓。建文初,更官制,左、右侍中次尚书。改观右侍中,与方孝孺等并亲用。燕王举兵,观草制,讽其散军归藩,敕身谢罪,辞极诋斥。四年奉诏募兵上游,且督诸郡兵赴援。至安庆,燕王已渡江入京师,下令暴左班文职奸臣罪状,观名在第六。既而索国宝,不知所在,或言:“已付观出收兵矣!”命有司追捕,收其妻翁氏并二女给象奴。奴索钗钏市酒肴,翁氏悉与之持去,急携二女及家属十人,投淮清桥下死。观闻金川门不守,叹曰:“吾妻有志节,必死。”招魂,葬之江上。命舟至罗刹矶,朝服东向拜,投湍急处死。
  观弟覯,先匿其幼子,逃他处。或云覯妻毕氏孀居母家,遗腹生子,故黄氏有后于贵池。
  初,观妻投水时,呕血石上,成小影,阴雨则见,相传为大士像。僧舁至庵中。翁氏见梦曰;“我黄状元妻也。”比明,沃以水,影愈明,有愁惨状。后移至观祠,名翁夫人血影石。今尚存。
