Death of King Philip (Metacomet) August 12, 1676 📍Bristol, Rhode Island King Philip, was the leader of the Wampanoag tribe during King Philip's War, a conflict between Indian tribes and English colonists in New England. On August 12, 1676, Metacomet was killed in a swamp near Mount Hope in Bristol, Rhode Island. He was reportedly shot and killed by a Pocasset Indian named John Alderman, who was assisting the English colonists in hunting down Metacomet. Metacomet's death marked the end of the war and the defeat of the Indian resistance in New England. @HistoricalNE

Today we celebrate the 350th anniversary of the death of Metacomet (King Philip)—that murderous savage whose cowardly, treacherous raids slaughtered our people after they had settled the lands of New England.

Rhode Island has always been "America in miniature" since before there was a USA. However today, Rhode Island too is succumbing to a radical demographic transformation. With these policy steps, Rhode Island can cut the number of foreign-born by half and ensure the state stays American for generations to come! Demographic decline is not inevitable. It was a policy choice. And we can choose to reverse it! 🔗 Find out how here at our website 🔗 Support us by subscribing to our Substack 🔗 Follow us on X

Britton Ferry c. 1930 (colorized) 📍Chesterfield, New Hampshire For three centuries, inland river ferries were the working backbone of New England, linking towns split by wide, unfordable rivers. At each crossing stood a licensed ferryman, often part of a family monopoly passed down through generations, bound to operate year-round in all weather at fixed rates. He worked through rain, darkness, and flood, carrying farmers, wagons, goods, and then automobiles when no other route existed for miles. But bridges came—first covered, then iron, then highways—and the roads shifted. The crossings became dead ends, the licenses worthless, the boats left to rot. @HistoricalNE
