As a matter of style, these days we avoid small files like `First.java` and `Second.java` and put the source instead in a text block in the main test file and write the file(s) on the fly, typically using `ToolBox.writeJavaFiles`.  This makes it easier to read the test all at once, instead of switching between small files that are dominated by a legal header.
