L. Cox, J. Newton, and T. Puckett report the discovery of an apparent supernova (mag 16.1) on unfiltered CCD images (limiting mag 19.1) taken with a 0.40-m reflector at Portal, AZ, U.S.A., on May 23.1914 UT in the course of the Puckett Observatory Supernova Search. The new object is located at R.A. = 13:47:01.68, Decl. = +33:53:36.0 (equinox 2000.0), which is 6".7 east and 1".2 south of the center of UGC 8713. The variable was designated PSN J13470168+3353360 when it was posted at the Central Bureau's TOCP webpage and is here designated SN 2012cp based on the spectroscopic confirmation reported below.
