Inspection of red prints of the NGC 2264 region show three red nebulae about 17 arcmin south of S Mon. The red nebulae are spatially coincident with a molecular cloud and far-infrared emission. The red nebulae were searched for their source of flux, and two point sources separated by 2.8 arcsec at a position angle of 265 deg were found. These sources are located in the molecular cloud and at the far-infrared emission peak. The eastern source has an effective temperature less than 2800 K, and the western source has an effective temperature less than 10,000 K. The total luminosity of the combined stars is about 550 solar luminosities.
