Answer:

John Henry Slater

Step-by-step explanation:

All the other words are there for different reasons. "Listen to me" is a sentence which commands something. "Or you will be sorry" is a declaration of consequence. But to whom will this consequence happen? In this case, to John Henry Slater. Those words are there only so you can be sure of who the speaker is addressing to, therefore, they are words of direct address.
