《宋史·列传·卷二百零九》
元军断绝危险要地，使援兵不能到达，尹谷知道州城危急，与妻子儿女诀别说 ：我以清贫的儒生受到国家恩泽，典领一州，忠义不可以屈服，你们必须跟从我而已。 召弟尹岳秀使他出城，以保存尹氏的后嗣，尹岳秀哭着同意兄长去死。
大军断绝险要，援兵不至，谷知城危，与妻子诀曰： 吾以寒儒受国恩，典方州，谊不可屈，若辈必当从吾已耳。 召弟岳秀使出，以存尹氏祀，岳秀泣而许之死。
The Yuan army cut off dangerous places, preventing reinforcements from arriving, and Yin Gu knew that the city was in danger. He bid farewell to his wife and children and said: I, a poor Confucian scholar, have received the grace of the state and governed a prefecture. My loyalty and righteousness cannot be humiliated. You must follow me and die. He summoned his younger brother Yin Yueshow and asked him to leave the city to preserve the lineage of the Yin family. Yin Yueshow agreed to his brother's death with tears.
