"[April] 22 Nicholas Swaine & Abigail Halke of Hastingleigh wth Lic[ence]" - under heading 'From March 25 1728 to March 25 1729'
It is clear that this Abigail married between her Halke grandfather, Thomas, writing his will in 1725 and addeing a codicil to his will on 3 June 1728, and he actually names her husband, which confirms that it was this Abigail who married as shown here.
Thomas changed his will because he was going to leave £100 pounds to Abigail, but gave it to her during his life instead.
