After Kapu's death, Kapu Mikapaa succeeded him with Kaialiilii as overseer. Kaialiilii had the patch after Kaopulupulu's release. He was destitute to 1848 then his house was erected on the konohiki's place, but in 1849, it was destroyed by fire. I. Kalili built a house and cultivated the patch for the King, when he had become an overseer.
