FRB 151230 is observed to be 6 $\\pm$ 11% circularly polarized and 35 $\\pm$ 13 % linearly polarized with a rotation measure (RM) consistent with zero. Conversely, FRB 160102 is observed to have a circular polarization fraction of 30 $\\pm$ 11 %, linear polarization fraction of 84 $\\pm$ 15 % for RM = -221(6) rad m$^{-2}$ and the highest measured DM (2596.1 $\\pm$ 0.3 pc cm$^{-3}$) for an FRB to date.
