Excerpt from The Dublin Journal of Medical Science, Vol. 147: January to June, 1919
It is generally believed that the first introduction as a weapon of war by the Germans of the substance which is now known by our troops as "Mustard Gas," was about the middle of July, 1917. Personally I think that it bad in all probability been used to some slight extent before that, inasmuch as a patient was admitted to my ward in Baggot Street Hospital towards the end of June, who presented symptoms similar to those with which I later became very familiar in France, but apparently it was not used on anything like a large scale until about July the 12th.
