THE EXPEDITION OF KEMAN-KESH.
About this time the office of capudan was held by Keman-Kesh Ahmed Beg, who in 940 sailed with eighty galleys, on an expedition to the Mediterranean, and having pillaged several of the infidels coasts, returned and was employed in the royal arsenal. This capudan was famous for his great strength, for he could hold an enraged ram with one hand. He was also a good archer.[21] He held the office of capudan till the arrival of Khair-ad-din Pasha from Algiers, about which time he died.
