The Thomas Brown Phillips Stewart Society

Thomas Brown Phillips Stewart (1865–1892) was a barrister and poet who died at the early age of 27. He left a portion of his estate to establish a student library at Osgoode Hall, which later became the largest law library in Canada.

The Thomas Brown Phillips Stewart Society was created to commemorate Osgoode’s first benefactor and to honour all those who, like this generous young man, made Osgoode Hall Law School a part of their legacy through a planned gift.

Membership in the Society is offered to those alumni and friends who share this commitment to Osgoode by means of a planned gift including bequests, life insurance, or other future arrangements. All members will be recognized annually in the Osgoode Hall Law School Report on Giving.
