What was Daniel Harvey Hill's rank duirng the Civil War?

Daniel Harvey Hill was a major general (two stars). He was nominated to be a three star general, a lieutenant general, and held commands that were appropriate for a lieutenant general, but he was never confirmed by the Confederate Senate as a lieutenant general. Hill could be hard to get along with and outspoken and this was probably the reason he was never confirmed as a lieutenant general. Many Civil War personages are boiled down today to a one-word descriptive, and the word applied to Hill was "dyspeptic". "Dyspepsia" at the time meant a medical complaint which was probably ulcers, and sufferers were notoriously grumpy.
