D J NIX, Sworn In For The Defendant, 81st To Testify

D. J. Nix, witness for the Defendant in rebuttal, at the Trial of Leo Frank in the Fulton County Superior Court of Atlanta, Georgia, in 1913 (Testimony Portion From July 28 – August 21, 1913; Closing Arguments August 21-25, 1913)
D. J. Nix, 19-year-old office boy from April to October 1912, delivered a bullet-proof Saturday log that torched the State’s “immoral afternoons” fantasy.

Every other Saturday (summer): stayed until 4:00–6:00 p.m.
Every Saturday after Sept 1: stayed until 5:30–6:00 p.m.
Never missed a day—100 % attendance.
Sat in the outer office, 10 feet from Frank.
Frank + Schiff always buried in ledgers.
Zero women, zero drinking, zero alley parades.

On cross, Nix stood unshaken:

Summer: every other Saturday full shift.
Fall: every single Saturday until October.
No women, no back-door romps, no exceptions.

Nix’s six-month, 26-Saturday vigil turned Dalton’s “women every weekend” into ghost stories.
A teenage gatekeeper who never left early proved the fourth floor was paperwork, not passion.
