Well, I had already read it somewhere so I was stressing on "He came yesterday".But to get a proof now I just checked in Wren & Martin.It says,

The simple past tense is used to indicate an action completed in the past.It often occurs with adverbs or adverb phrases of past time.

Examples,

The steamer sailed yesterday.
I received this letter a week ago.

The past perfect describes an action completed before a certain moment in the past; as,

I met him in New Delhi in 1996.I had seen him last five years before.
