I believe the answer is:
towed
<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">pulled along</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(towing is a kind of pulling along)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is all the clue.<br/ ></span>
(Other definitions for towed that I've seen before include "drawn" , "Helped when powerless" , "Pulled along" , "Dragged behind" , "Hauled" .)
