dowry
DOWRY, noun [See Dower. This word differs not from dower. It is the same word differently written, and the distinction made between them is arbitrary.]
1. The money, goods or estate which a woman brings to her husband in marriage; the portion given with a wife.
2. The reward paid for a wife.
3. A gift; a fortune, given.
