The information in this article comes from Smith's book, published in 1903. Togia-Pulu-toaki was still patu-iki at the time when Smith wrote it. Unfortunately I don't know what happened after 1903 - i.e., when Togia-Pulu-toaki died, and whether he was succeeded by a new patu-iki, or whether the title was abolished. It does not appear to have been abolished with the advent of British sovereignty, but it may conceivably have lapsed upon King Togia's death. I simply don't know.

New Zealand attained the status of dominion in 1907, becoming the Dominion of New Zealand. But it is not correct to say that "the British monarch from then on reigned over Niue in his or her capacity as monarch of New Zealand". The New Zealand suzereignty over Niue was exercised by the Queen in right of New Zealand from the beginning
