Homerus, Iliades, (Carefully translated by yours truly, with commentary)

Chant, oh Goddess, the fatal anger of Achilles, on foot, and the burial of Hector, horse tamer.

They could not agree on some details of a deal, I imagine. Hector, with a name like that, could well be from South of the Border. May be he belonged to one of those cartels. In the story's sequel there is reference to a wooden horse filled with illegals, Robert Crumb must know all the details, but he never comes on MR.
