Scotland / The phrase "Bail for bonds"
« on: Wednesday 20 August 25 13:41 BST (UK)  »
First post so be gentle with me.  I have been researching my family history for some time and have come across the phrase "bail for bonds" in the 1777 OPR Marriages of Inch, Wigtown. See attached image.  I have searched the internet for an explanation of this term without successful.  Does anyone know the origin and meaning of this phrase?  Thanks.
