record

record
I Noun: A memorial and evidence of something written, said, or done. 45 Am J1st Reeds § 2. A plate, tape, or wire containing impressions from which sounds are reproduced. Under the ancient authorities the word signified a roll of parchment upon which the proceedings and transactions of a court were entered and drawn up by its officers. Blackstone gives substantially the same definition. But in the United States, paper has universally supplied the place of parchment as the material for the record. Nugent v Powell, 4 Wyo 13, 33 P 23. See court record; index; public record. II Verb: To recite or repeat in writing; to transcribe; to enter upon a book provided for that purpose. Montgomery Beer Bottling Works v Gaston, 126 Ala 425, 28 So 497. To make a record, to spread the contents of an instrument upon a public record, for example, the copying of an instrument filed for record in a book kept for the purpose in a public office. 45 Am J1st Reeds § 65. To file for record in a proper office, as in the case of chattel mortgages and conditional sale contracts. 15 Am J2d Chat Mtg § 8 1; 45 Am J1st Reeds § 67. Making an impression upon plate, tape, or wire of sounds for reproduction by record player or for television.
