It's obvious, therefore - assuming one accepts the Bible - that Adam was the first to "meet his maker"! (Yes, I realise the clue clearly asks for 'Abel' as the answer, given the 'A' and the 'E' plus the fact that 'meet your maker' also means 'die', but I'm not impressed. Had the opening letter 'A' been the only one there, the answer could have been quite different.)
