Catch Bond? (8)
I believe the answer is:
contract
I believe this is a double definition.
'catch' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)
'bond?' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)
(Other definitions for contract that I've seen before include "Agreement - lessen" , "Agree - get smaller" , "Shorten" , "Promise" , "Agree - reduce" .)
