I found one more sentence after the ellipsis. Here's the fuller version in my notes:
He never explained why. [...] Well, that's just about what I remember
about {jaSHa'}. Merely that (possibly not verbatim): "I don't think
it works."
There's still a bit missing but nothing relevant (such as more examples). I also don't have the date of his message. Does anyone else?
