Lunalilo Mausoleum

What a peaceful place this is. Although it seems to me that he had a sad life, he was loved and he truly stood up for what he believed. A man who definitely represented his people and it is very sad that his life and reign was cut short. How history could have changed if he had lived longer…
William Charles Lunalilo was the sixth monarch and very popular during his reign. King Kamehameha V had preceded Lunalilo and had died without naming a successor. Lunalilo was appointed by a vote of the people over his opponent, David Kalakaua. He took the throne in January 1873 and his inauguration was held at Kawaiaha’o Church. He only ruled a little over one year when he passed away on 3 Feb. 1874 at 39 years old. His last wish was to be laid to rest near his people, and this is why his tomb stands on the grounds of Kawaiaha’o Church and not at the Royal Mausoleum.
More history:
— Lunalilo is the grandson of Kamehameha I’s half-​brother and is related to Kinau (one of Kamehameha’s daughters) through his mother. His father Kanaina was a lower chief.
— Once he had been engaged to Victoria Kamamalu, but the match was opposed by Kamehameha IV, so Lunalilo remained a bachelor. It is said that he died of tuberculosis and alcoholism. A twist on his resting place (rumor or truth?): slighted by the Kamehameha family over the final resting place of his mother’s remains, Lunalilo insisted that he be buried in a tomb separate from the Royal Mausoleum; his resting place still stands inside the grounds of Kawaiaha‘o Church. He left his property to create the Lunalilo Home, a place for the poor, elderly, and ailing Hawaiian people.
— He amended the Constitution of 1864 and abolished property requirements for voting.
— Lunalili unsuccessfully pursued a reciprocity treaty with the United States and withdrew a proposal to lease out Pearl Harbor when faced with public opposition.
— Kamehameha IV sponsored a contest in 1860 for new national anthem. He wanted the lyrics to match the tune of «God Save the King.» Lunalilo wrote the winning entry and was awarded 10 dollars. His song became the kingdom’s new anthem.
