Treatise on the law of non-residents and foreign corporations, 1892.
http://books.google.com/books?id=eIhAAAAAYAAJ&printsec=frontcover&dq=treatise+on+the+law+of+non-residents&source=bl&ots=jPC5SjTFj0&sig=slZwdhtg4nYJs7xgpkyQBC1Ua8c&hl=en&sa=X&ei=SJYIUNThO8Ly2QWes8iuBw&ved=0CDQQ6AEwAA#v=onepage&q=treatise%20on%20the%20law%20of%20non-residents&f=false
As stated in the preamble to this book
"The term 'non-resident' as herein used means a citizen of the United States who does not reside in the state in which the question arises for decision, or in which the act complained of or relied upon was performed."
"
As there are now fifty-one states in the Union, it follows that every resident of any one state is a non-resident of fifty states; and that every corporation organized under the laws of any one state is a foreign corporation with respect to fifty states."
How could there be 51 states in 1892? Wyoming became the 44th state in 1890. Any clue as to which other seven "states" form the remaining seven needed to get to 51?
Generally speaking in 2012 it is recognized that there are 50 states in the union (at least there are 50 stars on the current U.S. flag). Add the remaining seven (unknown) states to get to 57 states at the current day. Didn't Obama say something about the 57 states during his 2008 election campaign and there was a lot of speculation on his confusing the U.S. with muslim states?
"... it is just wonderful to be back in Oregon, and over the last 15 months we have traveled to every corner of the United States. I've now been to fifty .. seven states? I think one left to go. One left to go. Alaska and Hawaii I was not allowed to go to even though I really wanted to visit but my staff would not justify it."

Quite a conundrum.
