編修硃福基等復以鳴鶴被難聞見各殊，呈請下兩江總督馬新貽確查。 Compiler Zhu Fuji and others, noting that reports of Minghe's death conflicted, asked that Governor-General Ma Xinyi of the Two Jiangs investigate.

新貽覆奏紳耆咸稱鳴鶴協同防守，誓以身殉，罵賊被戕，無避匿民居之事。 Ma Xinyi reported back that local gentry all testified that Minghe had joined the defense, sworn to die for the city, cursed the rebels, and been killed in the fighting, with no question of hiding in a private house.
