We report spectroscopic observations of the recent optical transient ROTSE3 J003809.1+403726, discovered in the outskirts of M31 by Romadan et al. (ATel #2840). At our request, a spectrum (410-950 nm) of the transient was obtained on 2010 Sep. 14.23 UT (approximately a week post maximum light) with the Low-Resolution Spectrograph on the 9.2m Hobby-Eberly Telescope. The spectrum reveals Fe II, O I, and strong Balmer emission lines (FWHM Hα ~ 1000 km/s; EW Hα ~ -22 nm) superimposed on a shallow blue continuum.
