1958Although the evidence of absence of prejudice is not as strong as that in some cases (see Wnukowski’s Case, 296 Mass. 63, 65-67 ; Zabec’s Case, 302 Mass. 465, 467-469 ; Watson’s Case, 322 Mass. 581, 584-585 ; Charron’s Case, 331 Mass. 519, 521 ), we cannot say that there was insufficient basis in the evidence for the board’s finding that neither failure to give notice nor the late filing of claim was prejudicial to the city.
