The gathering at Finstock Village Hall was organised by Bernard Collard, to introduce those singers of the UK With One Accord group to Sacred Harp convention etiquette before their visit to the New England Convention in September 1995.  Instruction was given by Robin Fox and Mary O'Reilly, both of Minnesota.  Robin and Mary conducted a Memorial Lesson, but no details of the Lesson, nor the names of any leaders were recorded at the time.

Pieces led: 47b; 344; NH 102; 163b; NH 158; 300; 440; 528; 178; NH 148; ‘O Bless the Lord’; NH 22; 210; 497 and 547.

Compiled from records kept by Bernard Collard.
