Ann Putnam sends her daughter Ruth to Tituba in Arthur Miller's play "The Crucible" because she believes that Tituba, as a slave with knowledge of occult practices, can help communicate with the spirits of her deceased children. Ann is desperate to understand the mysterious illness afflicting Ruth and seeks to uncover the reasons behind her suffering. This act reflects Ann's deep-seated grief and her willingness to resort to supernatural means to find answers. Ultimately, it highlights the themes of fear and superstition prevalent in the Salem witch trials.
