The only black Jerry found on her was Johnny; while her spaciousness was filled principally with two- legged white-gods. He met them everywhere, at the wheel, on lookout, washing decks, polishing brass-work, running aloft, or tailing on to sheets and tackles half a dozen at a time. But there was a difference.
The horsemen had galloped on, their animals tailing off one by one, until only two remained in it at all. Having mutually agreed to let the stag live till another day to afford perhaps as good a run and as much pleasure to some one else, they thereupon also abandoned the chase, and turned their horses' heads homewards.
Alfred Somers, once the youthful, picturesque as his own paintings, was now a middle-aged family man with spectacles spectacles worn, too, with the single object of seeing through them and a row of daughters tailing off to infancy, who at present added appreciably to the income of the bathing-machine women established along the sands.

Nearly a hundred are there of these youths who intend to take part in the various trials of skill in equitation. Let the sports begin! The first exhibition on the programme was to be the coleo de toros, which may be rendered in English as "tailing the bull."
We've got to keep the red lantern ahead of us and fall into line. There go the bombers to the center, and our place you said was on the left, tailing the whole bunch."

The Dowager was skipper of the Thompson craft, with "My daughter" that's what her ma always called her as first mate, and Milo as general roustabout and purser.
