Based on the provided story, here are the scores:

```json
{
  "TragedyDegree": 4,
  "ComedyDegree": 6
}
```

**Reasoning:**

- **Tragedy Degree (4):** The story contains some tragic elements, particularly the burdens and debts Jacob faces and the historical murder that wrongfully tainted his family’s name. While these elements provide emotional setbacks and dramatic tension, the story does not center on profound, personal loss or intense tragic events. The tragic elements are more of a background that propels the narrative rather than being deeply gut-wrenching.

- **Comedy Degree (6):** The story has a relatively light-hearted resolution with some happy and emotionally uplifting moments, notably the vindication of Jacob’s family and the lifting of burdens. The use of terms such as "newfound hope" and the village's "blossoming" suggest a relatively happy ending. However, the story lacks strong comedic aspects or a pronounced light-hearted tone throughout. It is more of a mystery with a satisfying resolution than outright comedy.
