Although Tituba was a free person, she enslaved herself for the sake of John Indian. John Indian was an opportunist who seeks to make the most of every situation and of every person by compliance and\ or corporation. John eventually showed disloyalty to Tituba who lost her love for him.

Towards the end of Tituba’s time in prison, all the other prisoners were either freed or have died leaving her behind. Her life was never easy. Samuel Paris had stopped paying the fees to keep Tituba in prison, causing the fees to accumulate and had to be paid before she could be released. I admire her strength during this tough time; she did not make the situation get to her head. Perhaps, she had faith, tolerance, and could condition her mind to her changing situation or she knew she did not have control over her future at any time after being born a slave.

Tituba’s fate lies in the balance of being sold as a slave to pay the prison fees incurred that should have been paid by Samuel Paris (pp.120- 2). I cannot imagine how horrible a feeling this could be for her. After seeing how she sacrificed her freedom for a man (John Indian) and he was not there to rescue her, and now she may have to return to the hardships of slavery again; was frightful.
