(Rule 803(5)) Recorded recollection of past event.
A memorandum or record
concerning a matter about which a witness once had knowledge but now has insufficient recollection
to enable him to testify fully and accurately, shown to have been made or adopted by the witness
when the matter was fresh in his memory and to reflect that knowledge correctly, is not excluded by
§ 19-16-4. If admitted, the memorandum or record may be read into evidence but may not itself be
received as an exhibit unless offered by an adverse party.
