We report the discovery of a new fast radio burst (FRB), FRB~010312, in
archival data from a 1.4,GHz survey of the Magellanic Clouds using the
multibeam receiver on the Parkes 64,m-diameter radio telescope. These data
sets include the Lorimer burst (FRB~010724), which it pre-dates and which we
also re-detect. The new burst has a much higher dispersion measure of
1187,cm$^{-3}$pc. The burst is one of the broadest found to date, the second
earliest FRB known, and the ninth FRB discovered with a dispersion measure
larger than 1000,cm$^{-3},$pc. Our discovery indicates that there are likely
to be more burst events still to be found in the existing Parkes data archive.
