DAVID KALAKAUA, Last Prince of Hawaii. King of Hawaii today, if monarchy were 
still in existence, would have been the destiny of David Kalakaua, son of the 
late Prince David Kawananakoa and Princess Abigail Wahiikaahuula Kawananakoa. 
Descendant and the last male member of a long line of royal ancestors, 
inheriting the title of Prince from his father, who was created Prince of the 
Kalakaua Dynasty, young David Kalakaua, upon his return from mainland schools 
in 1924, began laying the foundation for a career among his people and, with 
that motive in view, he entered the employ of Ewa plantation to study the 
details of the sugar business.
  He was born in Honolulu, March 10, 1904, at the old home of the Kawananakoa 
family in Pensacola St., and was named for his granduncle, the late King David 
Kalakaua.
  He received his early education at Punahou and the Honolulu Military 
Academy. From Honolulu he was sent to the Fay School at Southboro, Mass., 
later attending the Taft School at Watertown, Conn., and the Belmont Military 
Academy at Belmont, Calif.
  On his mother’s side, David Kalakaua is a grandson of the late James 
Campbell, one of the pioneers of the sugar industry in Hawaii. He is at 
present living with his mother in Hawaii.
