In the days just prior to Hurlbut's return to the Kirtland area. a self-constituted committee of citizens of Willoughby, Mentor, and Painesville began meeting at the home of Warren Corning, in Mentor, to investigate the origin and design of Mormonism. At least two members of the group were also currently Kirtland township officers: Justice of the Peace Josiah Jones and Town Clerk Oliver A. Crary. D. P. Hurlbut got himself invited to the semi-public meetings of this group.
