Is this person's given name really "Doctor", or is that a title? If a title, it should not be part of the name. I don't know much about him and the article was a bit ambiguous about his given names. - SESmith 10:46, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
The following might help;
"In an editorial, Oliver Cowdery warned readers that Hurlbut had been exploiting his given name "Doctor" in an effort to give his actions an air of authority: "We have not, till now, thought this man worthy a notice in our paper, neither would he at this time [have] been noticed by us were it not to undeceive those at a distance who are unacquainted with him and may be deceived in consequence of the above title, of Doctor." "

Personally, I think it should read 'Doctor (given name, not title) Philastus Hurlbut[1]' as the footnote might lead to the assumption that it references what he had earned his doctorate(s) in.
