Hej,
Please help with the transcription and translation of the following record:
Hans Madsen + Maren Hansdatter's betrothal record: 24 Jan 1749, Pedersker Sogn, Sønder Herred, Bornholm. The record is located at: Pedersker Sogn Kirkebog 1688 -1764, opslag 249b, and FamilySearch image 238b.
I have attached an image of the record for your use.
Please transcribe the Danish record and then translate it into English.
With appreciation!
Mvh,
David

Betrothed, Friday January 24, Hans Madsen of Poulsker? in ...... [jurisdiction?}and Maren Hansdatter of Lyng, here. His bond was in the form of a notice from pastor Damm, in whose Nexø parish he has been; she was vouched for by her father, Hans Clausen.
A difficult hand to read, and unusual phrasing.
Hej Ralph,
Thanks for your help. I was struggling with this record. It is beyond my current skill level.
With appreciation,
