The final recording session for With The Beatles saw a final overdub onto ‘I Wanna Be Your Man’ and three mono mixes.
The overdub was a tambourine part (player unknown), recorded onto take 15 as take 16.
‘I Wanna Be Your Man’ was the first of the two songs to be mixed, followed by ‘Little Child’ and ‘Hold Me Tight’. The session began at 10am and finished at 1pm, after which The Beatles flew to Sweden for their first foreign tour.

It’s actually not accurate to say that the tour of Sweden was The Beatles’ first overseas, because they had previously played residencies in Hamburg, Germany.
First foreign ‘tour’, not the same as a residency at a club. And not in the current configuration.
