Question

night_(come)on,the men went home.non finite​

Answer 1

night came on,the men went home

Answer 2

Ans: night had come on, all men went.

It was the incident done (falling of night)fully so the going of all men.

Besides "had come", the english grammar accepts "came" as the past tense in the verb as the connected clause is in the same tense. So, it would have two answers.
