Record of the past (9)

I believe the answer is:

chronicle

(Other definitions for chronicle that I've seen before include "Account of important events" , "(Keep an) historical record" , "Record of historic events" , "Story" , "Register of events over time" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
