Kamehameha V left no heir to the throne of the Kingdom of Hawaii. Lunalilo, the unanimous
choice among the people in a popular vote, became known as the "People's King." Lunalilo
officially took the throne in January 1873. While King, Lunalilo removed the property owning
requirements that the Constitution of 1864 required for voting eligibility. William Charles
Lunalilo's reign ended after a year with his untimely death on February 3, 1874. Lunalilo choose
not to be buried with the past monazchs at the Royal Mausoleum, but instead was laid to rest
