这是一个多重复合句

第二层（宾语从句中）

　　主句：that is 前文提到过的事情就是

　　表语从句：why he came to me when he went broke, ——他破产时来到我这里原因

　　同位语：that and the fact that he was a namesake of mine【对主句主语 that 的进一步说明】——那件事及其事实

第三层（表语从句中）

　　主句：why he came to me

　　时间状语从句：when he went broke,

第四层（同位语中）

　　并列同格词：that and the fact 【与上文的 that 同格】——也就是前文提到的那件事及其事实

　　嵌套同位语从句：that he was a namesake of mine 【对that and the fact 的具体说明】——即他与我同名的（那件事及其事实）

参考译文：我猜想那就是为什么在他破产时来到我这里,也就是他与我同名的那件事及其事实.
