elsewhither (ELS-with-er) - adv., (arch.) toward a different place, in another direction.


Else- in this case meaning other, as in elsewhere. Whither here is the opposite of whence, from where, or in other words, to where. This is an old one, dating back to Old English elleshwider, and deserves revival.
