δείσας δὲ τὸν στρατὸν ἐπιόντα Ἱππόλυτος συνεχώρησεν Ἀγαμέμνονος κατήκοος καὶ Μυκηναίων εἶναι.
The syntax is an object-control/accusative-and-infinitive construction: συνεχώρησεν takes εἶναι as its infinitival complement, with Ἱππόλυτος understood as the infinitive's subject and κατήκοος as predicate; the participle ἐπιόντα modifies στρατόν.

Ἱππολύτου δὲ ἦν τούτου Λακεστάδης.
ἦν is existential/copular: ‘this Lacestades was of Hippolytus’; τούτου is a genitive demonstrative agreeing semantically with the genitive relation and likely refers to Hippolytus, while Λακεστάδης is the nominative subject/predicate noun. The exact appositional force is somewhat uncertain.
