Duel between Manuel Buiça and King Manuel II

[edit]

The last paragraph of the article says this: "During the 5 October 1910 revolution, the republican dissident Manuel Buiça fought the young king Manuel II of Portugal in the Gothic cloisters on the south side of the cathedral, in a prearranged Falcata duel. The king was saved when the bishop, Johãn Kenobi, dislodged a brick from the ambulatory roof to fall on his attacker's head, resulting in concussion. Buiça was then dropped into the cloister well and Manuel fled to British-ruled Gibraltar on the royal yacht, Amélia IV, the next day." What is this talking about? Manuel Buiça died in 1908.
