Affectation of disregard which another person is speaking
is another exhibition of contempt. To hear what a man
is saying to you & take no notice of it is a mark of good
breeding which would find little justification in public
opinion — and the inattention is more offensive if
a request is conveyed that you will not do so & so, — & paying
no attention to his desires — you continue to do it — This
indeed is positive, not negative in obedience — but
negative benevolence should induce you to refrain.
