It was stated in Hall v. Palmer (1844), 3 Hare 532, 67 E.R. 491 at 493: "It was true that a bond given in consideration, either in the whole or in part, of future cohabitation, was void; or, stating the rule in other words, if the security was of such a nature as to hold out an inducement, or constitute to either party a motive, to continue the connexion, the instrument would be void."
