I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'pieces of wood' is the definition.

I cannot understand how the rest of the clue works.

(Other definitions for logs that I've seen before include "Written record of a voyage" , "Written records of events on board" , "Firewood; records" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
