Both enforcements are essentially the same. In the original sample play, the holding penalty, during the live ball, negates the apparent TD and is enforced from the spot of the foul (if during a run), previous spot (if during a pass), and the down is repeated. After that live ball foul is enforced, the dead ball foul is enforced from the subsequent spot.
In your example, there was no live ball foul, the play simply ended at the 1 yard line. After the play, the dead ball foul is enforced from the subsequent spot.
