"Get a move on you, you kids," was her greeting. "I have come for you. I haven't got all day to wait, either. Never mind your hats. I'll buy you some new ones. Now don't set up a bawl. God knows it ain't any treat to me to have you tagging along after me. Mind me! Come along." Polly and Peter clung to one another and refused to move. "I'm not going with you and neither is Peter," declared Polly.

Well, I wish you'd manage to keep Hughie from butting in as usual?" "Is that all?" she cried. "'Course I'll keep Hughie at home. I didn't realize how he was tagging round after you and Pearl. I want him to help me, anyway.
There's none like him! she cried; and not caring a fig for the officers and men standing around, before even he knew who she was, she had him clasped in her arms, and was covering his cheeks with kisses, while the old father had got hold of his hand and was tagging away at it just as a man in a hurry does at a bell-rope.

"Don't you bother; we don't want any girls tagging after us," said Sam, walking off to escape the annoyance.
If you want to come along, all right; if not adios!" He turned and started to climb, Bob tagging at his heels. But Spanish Joe could not bring himself to accept the invitation.
