A recent high resolution study of ${}_{}{}^{24}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{Mg}({}_{}{}^3{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{He},t)$ found that the cross section to a presumed single $1^{+}$ state of ${}_{}{}^{24}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{Al}$ at 1.12 MeV is in fact a doublet. This peak in the spectra was successfully separated into two peaks in a reanalysis of our previous data, and the new results were compared with the earlier discussion of the reaction mechanism. It is found that a new state of spin ${\mathrm{}(1,2,3)\mathrm{}}^{+}$ exists near 1.12 MeV in ${}_{}{}^{24}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{Al}$.
