Description: 

"The West" is mentioned by the narrative as one of the places to which the Confederate soldiers who are unwilling to surrender at Appomattox depart; it is ambiguously mentioned in the middle of two more specific western locations - "Texas, the West, New Mexico" - so it is uncertain what specific part of that "new land" the narrator is referring (204).
