"An old one and a new one."

"He didn't say the old tower of Tower Mansion, after all. He just said 'the old tower!'"
"Frank, I believe we've stumbled on the clue!"
"It would be the natural thing for him to come to his old haunts after the robbery. And if he found he couldn't get away with the stuff he would hide it somewhere he knew. The old water tower! Why didn't we think of it before, Joe? Why, that must be the place!"
