"I came from __ just to say 'Bonsoir!"': Lafayette in "Hamilton" (4)

I believe the answer is:

afar

(Other definitions for afar that I've seen before include "At a distance (literary)" , "Many a mile" , "Not in this neighbourhood" , "Pull out at a distance" , "Distant parts" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday.
