Format of ssh config

I followed a tutorial so I could have two seperate git hub users on the same machine, I created a config in the ssh folder:

#Default GitHub
Host <span class="skimlinks-unlinked">github.com</span>
HostName <span class="skimlinks-unlinked">github.com</span>
User git
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa
Host github-panthro
HostName <span class="skimlinks-unlinked">github.com</span>
User git
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa_panthro

But now when I try and ssh I get the error:

config line 3: garbage at end of line; "class".

I've cleaned up the class removing whitespace but still the error persists.

Delete the Span as follows and it should work. I have the similar config file that works.

Host github.com
HostName github.com
User git
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa
Host github-panthro
HostName github.com
User git
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa_panthro
