Eulogy on King Philip is a printed text of a speech delivered by William Apess in 1836 to, among other things, commemorate Metacom, also known as King Phillip, 160 years after his death. The speech was delivered at the prestigious[1] Odeon lecture hall on Federal Street in Boston, Massachusetts. Metacom is still remembered as the leader of an allied indigenous force that engaged in a consequential war with New England colonists, 1675–1676.[1][2][3][4]
