Family film of pioneer days

This was supposed to be in Colorado, but seems like it said it was filmed in Canada. A man goes to town and hangs out with some drinking buddies and gets killed by a rancher in defense. The man who killed him tells his widow that he'd help her if necessary. She later decides to marry him. The man wasn't expecting a request that drastic, but he agrees to it. The woman's boy is out hauling hay and sees a wild pony in a herd of wild horses and lets the team run away. But the rancher turns out to be a pretty good father. The boy eventually gets to have the wild pony for his own and the man and woman feel like they love each other.
