Arrived in rustic America (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

came

'arrived' is the definition.
(coming is a kind of arriving)

'in rustic america' is the wordplay.
'in' indicates a hidden word.
'CAME' is hidden in the letters of 'rustic america'.

(Other definitions for came that I've seen before include "Appeared" , "Arrived" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
