In our citation database, most of our examples of _yonder_ noun are
in some construction like "wild blue yonder." However, we do have this
unusual citation of _yonder_ noun, the interpretation of which I
leave as an exercise for the reader:

1996 A. Warner _Outlying Station_ in H. Ritchie _New Scottish Writing_
209 If I had _yonder_ in there for a daughter and the storms that are
brewing for her future I'd take myself up in those woods with a good
length of rope and a fine bottle of malt.
