{Hither and thither}, to this place and to that; one way and
another.
[1913 Webster]

Syn: There.

Usage: {Thither}, {There}. Thither properly denotes motion
toward a place; there denotes rest in a place; as, I
am going thither, and shall meet you there. But
thither has now become obsolete, except in poetry, or
a style purposely conformed to the past, and there is
now used in both senses; as, I shall go there
to-morrow; we shall go there together.
[1913 Webster]


Thither \Thith"er\, a.
1. Being on the farther side from the person speaking;
farther; -- a correlative of hither; as, on the thither
side of the water. --W. D. Howells.
[1913 Webster]

2. Applied to time: On the thither side of, older than; of
more years than. See {Hither}, a. --Huxley.
[1913 Webster]
