History:
PEASE, a city in section 13, Milo, was incorporated as
a village on August 6, 1923. In 1882 Benjamin Soule, a Maine lumberman,
who had a sawmill at Princeton, built a second sawmill and a hotel two
miles northeast of the present Pease called Soule's Crossing and located
on the east branch of the Rum River; in 1886 when the railroad completed
the tracks from Princeton to Milaca, Soule built another sawmill near
the tracks, which was then called Soule Siding; following the Hinckley
fire in 1894 that destroyed the sawmills, the first Dutch arrived at
Soule Siding, settling on land around the Siding, and requested a post
office, at which time the name was changed to Pease, either by the
railroad for James J. Hill's friend Granville S. Pease of Anoka, or as a
misspelling of Peace, the name requested by the residents.
