Between 1195 A.D. - 1231 A.D.
In Lisbon, Portugal, (the city where Saint Anthony of Padua was born), Anthony's father, Martin, was wrongfully accused of murder, after a corpse had been found, buried in his garden. Anthony was living in Padua at the time (which is approximately 1,200 miles from Lisbon), but after God revealed to Anthony the situation that his father was in, he immediately went (through divine intervention) to Lisbon in a couple of hours. In the court room, Anthony asked that the corpse be brought in immediately. When the corpse was brought in, Anthony asked the corpse to tell him, who had killed him. The man was revived, instantly sat up, said the name of his murderer, and attested the innocence of Anthony's father. Then, the man turned to Anthony, asked for his sins to be absolved, and returned to death. The next day, (through divine intervention) Anthony was back in Padua.
