KNOW ALL MEN THAT WE William May Henry Brasher of the county of Lawrence and 
State of Tennessee are held and firmly bound unto the Governor of said state, 
for the time being in the sum of twelve hundred and fifty dollars to be paid to 
his Excellency, his successors in office or assigns to which payment well and 
truly to be made we bind ourselves our heirs executors and administrators, and 
each and every of us and them, jointly and severally by these presents.--
Witness our hands and seals this 23rd day of March 1825
The condition of the above obligation is such that whereas William May
hath prayed and obtained a license to marry Mary Brasher
Now if the said Mary be an actual resident in the aforesaid county, and there 
shall not appear any lawful cause why the said William & Mary should not be 
joined together in holly matrimony as husband and wife, then this obligation to 
be void and of no effect, otherwise to remain in full force and virtue.
