From observations made with the Very Large Array at 6.0 and 3.6 cm in three different epochs (1994, 1997, and 2006), we estimate a rotation measure of +5100$\\pm$900 rad m$^{-2}$ for the extragalactic source. This large rotation measure implies a line-of-sight average magnetic field of $B_\\parallel \\simeq +36\\pm6$ $\\mu$G, the largest obtained by this method for an H II region.
