	This paper describes an extension to error backpropagation
	that allows the nodes in a neural network to encode state information
	in an autoregressive ``memory.''  This	neural model gives such networks
        the ability to learn to	recognize sequences and context-sensitive patterns. 
	Building upon the work of Wieland concerning nodes with a single feedback
	connection, this paper generalizes the method to $n$ feedback connections 
        and addresses stability issues. The learning algorithm is derived, and a few
	applications are presented.
