Thomas Treadwell Stone, though lesser-known than the other New England Transcendentalists, was a ready convert to Transcendentalism and an indefatigable worker for the cause of reform. He was a Unitarian minister, lecturer, scholar, and author who wrote for the
Dial.
Amos Bronson Alcott numbered him with the members of the Transcendental Club, but it is unknown which meetings he may have attended.
